Abstract

A revised composition of the family Sironidae is given. Two North American genera, namely Holosiro Ewing, 1923 and Neosiro Newell, 1943, are resurrected, one new genus, Arhesiro gen. nov., a subgenus, Tillamooksiro sbg. nov., and two new species, Holosiro ewingi sp. n. and Neosiro (T.) martensi sp. n. are described. Diagnostic characters of Cyphophthalmi families are presented and discussed.
