Twenty-five species are recognized, of which one is inadequately known for description. New species described: maini and calabyi from south-western Western Australia, subcinerescens from the Northern Territory, and wyndhamensis from the Kimberley district of Western Australia. New synonymy: breinli Ferg. & Hill = cohaerens Walk.
