Wooroloo, Goosberry Hill, Western Australia, Zoology Museum, University of Hamburg [N.B. Loan of the holotype was denied to be dispatched] Material examined. Paratypes: K-18517, K-18521, K-18522 (gender unknown), Wooroloo, Goosberry Hill, Western Australia (Zoology Museum, University of Hamburg) Diagnosis. Body pale. Eyes with 4&#x2013;6 developed black ommatidia. Remarks. This species has not been recollected in more than 90 years. Unfortunately, the paratypes examined were in poor condition which precluded a full redescription. However, the following characters match those for Paraplatyerthrus as follows: dorsal body covered with scale setae; cephalothorax with postfrons and profrons fused; outer endite of first maxilla with four outer teeth (including one stout smaller tooth; Fig. 4 A); maxilla 2 with inner lobe smaller than outer one, a fine suture delimiting lobes (Fig. 4 B); maxilliped endite with two small arrowlike setae on distal margin (Fig. 4 C). As the antennae were missing from the paratypes, the presence of a capillary furrow on the antennal peduncle could not be observed. However, the characters above provide enough evidence to confirm its generic placement. Additional sampling from the type locality and a further morphological examination should be undertaken for this species as a matter of priority.</description><description>Published as part of Javidkar, Mohammad, King, Rachael A., Cooper, Steven J.
