Abstract
The Australasian species in the genera Cardiochiles Nees ab Esenbeck and Bohayella Belokobylskij are revised. Twenty species of Cardiochiles are described as new, while C. dissimulator Turner, C. fuscipennis SzBpligeti, C. rufator Roman, C. uniformis Turner and C. verticalis Turner are redescribed. Bohayella toxopeusi, sp. nov. is newly described from New Guinea, this being the first record of the genus for the Australasian region, while C. adina Wilkinson, known from India and Malaysia, is transferred to Bohayella (new combination). Cardiochiles assimilator Turner, C. fasciatus SzBpligeti, C. piliventris Cameron, C. similis Brues and C. trichiosomus Cameron are synonymised with C. fuscipennis and a diagnosis of C. philippensis Ashmead is given. Information on the distribution of each species, host relationships where known, and taxonomic relationships are provided, along with an illustrated key to species.
