Abstract

Abstract A new genus Kailashia Pimenov & Kljuykov [type species K. xizangensis ( Chang HoTseng & Shan RenHwa ) Pimenov & Kljuykov , comb. nova, transferred from Pachypleurum ] and a new species of this genus, K. robusta Pimenov & Kljuykov , from the Indian state of Uttaranchal, have been described. Other Pachypleurum species, earlier described from the autonomous Chinese region of Xizang, were transferred to Cortia . P. nyalamense was shown to be identical to C. depressa , and for P. lhasanum a new combination, C. lhasana ( Chang HoTseng & Shan RenHwa ) Pimenov & Kljuykov comb. nova has been proposed.
