Allomeria nov.gen.

S p e c i e s t y p e Myzine pinguis TURNER 1916 . Monotypic.

D e r i v a t i o n o m i n i s from the greek ĮȜȜȠȢ (= different from, strange) and Meria . Gender feminine.

The colpus on terga and sterna are morphologically like those described in A. poliorykta , with the same disposition of the sul. Lobes of epipygium (7 th tergum) rounded laterally without any keel and therefore any differentiated horizontal from vertical surfaces.

The unique combination of the character states 18c, j, l and chiefly the uniquely derived characters within the subfamily 18a, m, n force to segregate this taxon from every others giving it a new taxon name, notwhistanding its unicity.
