Polyxenidae

The mentioned specimens can only be determined to genus level based on detailed head characteristics that cannot be examined from the photographs. Therefore, the figured specimens only show characters of the family, not of any specific genus.

“ Unixenus sp.“ ( Zhang 2017: 144) = Polyxenidae sp. The figure shows a polyxenid. Diagnostic characters of the genus Unixenus are not visible.

“ Propolyxenus sp.“ ( Zhang 2017: 144) = Polyxenidae sp. The figure shows a polyxenid. Diagnostic characters of the genus Propolyxenus are not visible.

“ Polyxenus sp.“ ( Zhang 2017: 145) = Polyxenidae sp. The figure shows a polyxenid. Diagnostic characters of the genus Polyxenus are not visible. In fact, the single tuft of caudal setae is more of an indication of Unixenus.
