Abstract
In the present revision four genera and 32 species are recognized. One genus, Paratoradjia, and 17 species, namely Adinda malaccensis, A. sumatrana, A. palniensis, A. carli, A. nilgirensis, A. lobata, A. tiangulifera, A. riedeli, A. lamellata, Protordjia paeninsulae, P. insularis, P. montana, P. pilosa, Paratoradjia beroni, P. vietnamensis, P. sulcata and Tordjia hirsuta, are described as new. The neotype of Toradjia cephalica and lectotypes of Adinda weberi, Protoradjia jacobsoni, Tordjia gorgona and T. celebensis are established. Adinda calegarii is considered to be a junior synonym of Adinda weberi, and A. conglobator a species inquirenda. Toradjia dolfusi is transferred to the genus Adinda, and T. indosinensis to Paratoradjia. The characters of the group and its taxonomic position within the Oniscidea are discussed: it is transferred from the Eubelidae to the Scleropactidae, of which it constitutes a separate subfamily, the Toradjiinae. A map and comments on the distribution of genera and species are included.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
