CNECOMYMAR Ogloblin, 1963

(Figs 311–339)

Cnecomymar Ogloblin, 1963: 65 . Type species: Cnecomymar major Ogloblin, 1963, by original designation.

Diagnosis. Body length 1100–1715 μm. Body mainly yellow or light brown (Fig. 311); face with toruli separated by about half torular diameter from transverse trabecula (Fig. 312); fore wing with microtrichia relatively sparse, long and scraggly (Figs 311, 317); metafemur and metatibia with erect setae each at least 4× as long as width of femur or tibia (Fig. 311).

Discussion. Among the nine other Nearctic genera of the Polynema group ( Acmopolynema, Caraphractus, Eustochus, Kalopolynema, Mymar, Neomymar, Palaeoneura, Polynema, Stephanodes), Cnecomymar is superficially similar to one Palaeoneura sp., which is also yellow, but otherwise it is distinct on the features listed above. Only the extralimital type species is described but several species are known, including at least one from the Nearctic.
