| Summary: | Neobrady pectinifera T. Scott, 1892 is thoroughly redescribed and figured. Parastenhelia (?) tenuis Brady, 1910 collected during the "Deutsche Südpolar Expedition 1901-1903" and placed species incerta sedis in the Parastenheliidae by Lang (1948) is also recognized as a Neobradyidae and assigned to a new genus Antarcticobradya gen. nov. The Neobradyidae are considered remnants of a formerly widespread group and brief reference is made to the phylogenetic relationship of the family. |
