Redivivoides Michener, 1981: 42-44 View in CoL , 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.
