Discussion: The number of taxa ascribed to this genus is provisional. Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1953) recognized seven species, Allen (1939) listed eleven. The acceptance here of two follows Coetzee (1977 b). The range of H. hirtula is included within that of H. parvula . McKenna and Bell (1997) included Dologale without discussion.
