Redivivoides Michener, 1981

Redivivoides Michener, 1981: 42-44, figs 80, 82-84 (p. 43), 97 (p. 48).

Type species: Redivivoides simulans Michener, 1981, by original designation.

The diagnosis of Redivivoides given by Michener (1981) was solely based on R. simulans, which was the only known species of the genus at that time. However, in some respects R. simulans is an exception within the genus so a redefinition of Redivivoides is required in the light of the six new species described in this paper (see discussion).

A comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of Redivivoides and related genera is in preparation to investigate the intra-generic relationships, so for convenience the species are here listed in alphabetical order.
