Diagnosis. Polynema belongs to the Polynema group of genera. Useful features to help distinguish it from other genera in the group are as follows: fore wing venation short, extending about one-quarter length of wing, with marginal vein punctiform, its posterior margin convex, not parallel with anterior margin ( Fig. 213 View FIGURES 213–215 ); face without pit next to each torulus ( Fig. 214 View FIGURES 213–215 ); propleura not abutting anteriorly; propodeum often with a median carina, either short ( Fig. 215 View FIGURES 213–215 ) or extending to dorsellum; body colour dark brown to black ( Fig. 215 View FIGURES 213–215 , cleared specimen). Male with flagellum 11-segmented.

Polynema saga (Girault) is reported here from Australia, based on one female collected in Victoria ( Figs. 213–215 View FIGURES 213–215 ). This Nearctic species is not included in the species list below until more Australia specimens are collected to confirm conclusively its presence there .

Body length. 600–2475 µm.

Distribution. Worldwide.

Hosts. Unknown for Australian species. Elsewhere reported from Cicadellidae , Lestidae , Membracidae , Miridae and Nabidae .

Important reference. New (1976), Triapitsyn and Berezovskiy (2007).
