Species name transferred to Polylobus by Bernhauer & Scheerpeltz (1926: 768) . The specific name is an adjective and was changed to the masculine spelling to agree with the gender of the generic name. The ending “-ale” is used to the neuter gender, so the ending “-alis” would also be correct in Gyrophaena (Alfred F. Newton, personal communication). Distribution: New Zealand ( Klimaszewski et al. 1996 ; Newton & Thayer 2005 ).
