Remarks. As mentioned by Ujiié (1990), the taxonomic relationships among species of Melonis , originally described as Nonionina barleeana Williamson , Nonion pacificum Cushman , Nonion nicobarensis Cushman , and Nonion parkerae Uchio are problematic. We regard N. parkerae Uchio (= Melonis uchioi , a new name to replace the junior homonym by Hasegawa, 1991), as a junior synonym of M. barleeanus .
