Diagnosis
Hypostomal seta hyp1 setiform (character 7), very large and spiniform setae on the legs; enlarged idiosomal glands.
Species included
A. krantzi , type species; n. sp. 2.
Remarks
Setiform hypostomal setae 1 is a plesiomorphic character shared by most groups of Mesostigmata including Uropodellidae and Ichthyostomatogasteridae . Presence of large, spiniform leg setae and enlarged idiosomal glands are characters not found in any of those groups or in other Sejidae . Adenosejus appears to be most basal in the family Sejidae .
