Genus Standeria Jamieson 1968

Type species: Standeria transvaalensis Jamieson 1968

Alluroidinae in which the atria have narrow ducts and bulbous ental ends, the prostatic cells are solely internal to the muscular sheath of the atrium, and the opening of each atrium into the terminal chamber is separate from that of the corresponding vas deferens. Male pores ventral at the sites of the absent ventral setal couples of XIII. Genital setae present. Spermathecal pores paired, lateral in IX. First septum 4/5; 10/11 attenuated. First nephridia in XI. Intestine commencing in XV. No distinct seminal vesicles.

Distribution. Mpumalanga Province, in the former Transvaal, (Lake Chrissie).

Remarks. Standeria shows some notable resemblances to Brinkhurstia which distinguish the two genera from Alluroides . In both, rounded terminal male chambers each receive an atrial duct and a second duct which in Brinkhurstia is known to be the vas deferens and in Standeria is apparently so. Furthermore, in both genera the atria are significantly thinner relative to the body width than those of Alluroides .
