Epialtidae MacLeay, 1838

Remarks. Poore et al. (2008) listed 14 species in this family from the south-western Australian collections. Of these, Austrolibinia gracilipes (Miers, 1879) , Hyastenus convexus Miers, 1884 , Naxioides robillardi (Miers, 1882) , N. taurus (Pocock, 1890) , N. tenuirostris (Haswell, 1880) , Phalangipus filiformis Rathbun, 1916 , and P. hystrix (Miers, 1884) were new records for southern or all Western Australia. They also reported Griffinia lappacea ( Rathbun, 1918) and Lahaina agassizii (Rathbun, 1902) which were previously known. One specimen, which could not be identified at the time, belongs to a species of Thacanophrys .
