Dolichochaeta Philippi, 1863

Comments. This Chilean genus is currently monotypic. It only includes Dolichochaeta longicornis Philippi, 1863 . Unfortunately, the type specimen is lost. Its original description indicates characteristics more akin to Rhaphidophoridae . In addition, Dolichochaeta is poorly studied and, according to Johns (1997), eight or ten species of this group of possible Chilean Macropathinae should still be described. This genus may possibly be a synonym of one of the two Chilean Rhaphidophorid genera Heteromallus Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1888 and Udenus Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1900 .
