ABSTRACT. The genus Merceyopsis Broth. & Dixon is resurrected and a new combination created in it for the species presently known as Scopelophila cataractae (Mitt.) Broth. The genus Pseudoblindia Fedosov, M. Stech & Ignatov is illegitimate since its original circumscription included the type of an earlier generic name, Kiaeria I. Hagen. Three new combinations are made in Kiaeria for the austral species of the genus.
