Genus Pseudopoda Jäger, 2000

For diagnoses and descriptions of family, subfamily and genus see Jäger (1998, 2001) and Jäger and Ono (2000). For description of species groups see Jäger (2001).

Species are listed in the order of species groups proposed by Jäger (2001). This system is not a result of a thorough phylogenetic investigation, but in compliance with the degree of complexity of the male embolus. Therefore some of the simple conformations in male emboli may be explained as secondary reductions. Species groups as recognised by Jäger (2001) are discussed with respect to the new results of this study (see Discussion).
