Abstract: The 7 Australian species of the genera Casonidea Fairmaire, 1882 and Sora Walker, 1859 are reviewed. Two new species are desribed: Casnonidea brevimarginis sp. n., Sora lawrencei sp. n. New synonyms are Synatractus Macleay, 1887 = Casnonidea Fairmaire, 1882, Nemostira diversipennis Pic, 1923 = Casnonidea variabillis (Macleay, 1887); Nemostira limbata Borchmann, 1924 = Casnonidea nigrovittata (Pic, 1923); Nemostira bella Pic, 1923 = Casnonidea dimidiata Fairmaire, 1887. Three lectotypes and 2 neotypes are designated. Eutrapela australica Boheman, 1858 is removed from the Lagrinii to the Alleculinae. Keys to genera and species are given, and available faunistical data are listed.Subject: entomology
