Genus Condexenus Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin, 2006

Condexenus: Nguyen Duy­Jacquemin 2006: 238–247 , figs 1–25.

Type species: Condexenus biramipalpus Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin, 2006 .

Diagnosis: Gnathochilarium with short median expansion, three trichobothria of equal size on head just median to ocelli, labral surface covered by numerous flat papillae with four to six posterior rows of smaller papillae, telotarsus without posterior lamellate process (Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin 2006).

Remarks: In the description of Condexenus, Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin (2006) suggested that this genus has 11 tergites and 15 pairs of legs, as opposed to the 12 tergites and 17 pairs of legs in Phryssonotus . However, a recently described Phryssonotus species from Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa, was found to have 11 tergites and 15 pairs of legs ( Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin et al. 2011).

The genus is currently only known from the type species.
