Genus Leucogeorgia Verhoeff, 1930

Leucogeorgia Verhoeff, 1930: 33 (name regarded as a feminine noun).

Type species

Leucogeorgia longipes Verhoeff, 1930 (by monotypy).

Diagnosis

Differs from other members of the tribe Leucogeorgiini (see Discussion for the tribe composition), except Martvilia gen. nov., by the deep division of the opisthomere into two branches. It can easily be distinguished from Martvilia gen. nov. by the presence of a mesomeral lamella attached just below the mesomere claw (vs mesomere almost free, with basally attached lamella in Martvilia gen. nov.).
