@article{Short2011TheGU, title={The genus Unixenus Jones, 1944 (Diplopoda, Penicillata, Polyxenida) in Australia}, author={Megan D. Short and Cuong Van Huynh}, journal={ZooKeys}, year={2011}, pages={105 - 122} }
Abstract The penicillate genus Unixenus Jones, 1944 is widespread, with species found in Africa, Madagascar, India and Australia. Each of the two Australian species was originally described from single samples from Western Australia. In this study, collections of Penicillata from museums in all states of Australia were examined to provide further details of the two described species, to revise the diagnoses for both the genus and the species, and to better understand the distribution of the two…
