Subgenus: Mistshenkoella Cejchan, 1969 View in CoL

Cejchan, 1969: 233. Type species: Mistshenkoella marani Cejchan, 1969 . Paktia Pfadt, 1970 (Type species: Paktia gardezae Pfadt, 1970 ). syn. nov.

Remarks. This genus was erected by Cejchan (1969: 233) after the new species M. marani Cejchan, 1969 collected from Afghanistan. Pfadt (1970: 21) also established a new genus, Paktia , and described its only species, P. gardezae Pfadt, 1970 , from Afghanistan . In both genera males are brachypterous, females have scale-like tegmina; this is the only difference from the Saxetania Mistshenko. There is no doubt that Mistshenkoella and Paktia are synonyms, but their type species are valid species. I have found a male of Mistshenkoella in the unidentified material of the ZIN, which is a distinct additional new species of this subgenus.
