APOLONIINAE 
119 
Summary 
Three new genera and species, Cockingsia tenuipes , Grossia onychia and Mackerrasiella 
globus are described and their affinities are considered to be closest with the Apoloniinae 
Wharton. The genera Nothotrombicula and Womersleyia are re-described together 'with their 
type species, and likewise ascribed to the Apoloniinae. 
Five genera are thus provisionally placed in the Apoloniinae pending further studies of 
related species as well as of nymphal and adult stages. 
Another new genus and species, Audyana thompsoni , is described and placed in the family 
Trombidiidae, subfamily Trombellinae, with a note on the general affinities of the larva with 
the Apoloniinae.
