Queensland, S. storeyi sp. nov. from Western Australia and Northern Territory,
S. jabiru sp. nov. from Northern Territory, S. monteithianus sp. nov. from
Queensland and Northern Territory, S. weiri sp. nov. from Northern Territory,
Queensland, New South Wales and Western Australia, and S. kangaroo sp. nov. from
South Australia. Types and additional specimens were examined for all seven
species known to date, lectotypes are designated for S. stephensii (MacLeay,
1865) and S. macleayi (Sloane, 1896). All species are redescribed, illustrated
and compared to related taxa and the known distribution is summarized. A key to
the species of Setodyschirius is provided.
