| abstract | The phylogeny of the Hemicheyletia generic group (Cheletomimus, Hemicheyletia and Tutacheyla) was reconstructed by a cladistic methodusing the software PAU 3.1. This analysis was based on 21 morphological characters of the female, and showed that these taxa form a monophyletic group. It also revealed that the genus Tutacheyla is a sister group of Hemicheyletia-Cheletomimus. The genus Hemicheyletia is reduced to a subgenus of Cheletomimus, and the latter now includes 3 artificial subgenera, Cheletomimus s.str., Hemicheyletia stat.nov. and Philippicheyla. The genus Cheletomimus is revised andredefined, leaving it with 36 valid species. Diagnoses with and a key to all known species are provided. Four new species are described: C. ascutatus spec. nvo., C. greenwoodi spec. nov., C. gracilis spec. nov. and C. ochoai spec. nov. |
