Abstract

The obscure species Strophopoda aprica Van Duzee, 1921 is redescribed. Calidroides, n.gen., is erected to accommodate the type species C. schaffneri, n.sp., from Arizona, Texas, and Mexico and C. negro, n.sp., from southern Mexico. Chlamyopsallus, n.gen., is described to accommodate the type species, C. lycii, n.sp., from the western portion of the Mojave Desert of southern California. Two new species of Pseudopsallus Van Duzee are described, P. tiquiliae, n.sp., from southern California and P. greggii, n.sp., from New Mexico and southwestern Texas. Systematic relationships in the Phylini and Pseudopsallus are discussed and digital habitus illustrations, illustrations of male genitalia, scanning micrographs of diagnostic features, and new distributional records are provided.
