plates with an extension anteriorly, latter fused with the surface. Palp 5-segmented, but its genu and femur immovably hinged. Palpal setal formula: 0-2-02-9+1. Tridactylous legs, with normal chaetotaxy. Solenidium on tarsus II with coupled setae . Solenidium on genu IV . Seta d_ on tibia IV reduced and coupled with the solenidium. Elementary chaetotaxy: A: 4, N : 14, Ly: 2-3( ?) , G: 9, Ag: 2-3, An: 1-2, Ad: 2-37 Remarks^ The genus was divided into two subgenera: Indotritia ( Indotritia) with the present diagnosis and Indotritia ( Afrotritia ) ( Mahunka , 1988) ~, see in the following. Indotritia (Afrotritia ) Mahunka, 1988 Indotritia Afrotritia Mahunka, 1988: 354. Type species: Indotritia ( Afrotritia ) compacta Mahunka, 1988. Type deposited: HNHM. Diagnosis: Habitus and the main features an identical with the nominate subgenus: Indotritia Jacot, 1929, but the ano-adanal suture is incomplete, therefore, the posterior part of the anal and adanal plates fused. Maerkelotritia Hammer, 1967 Maerkelotritia Hammer, 1967: 6. Maerkelotritia Märkel 1968: 731. Maerkelotritia Aoki 1980: 76. Type species: Maerkelotritia aleskensis Hammer, 1967 = ? M. kishidai (Aoki, 1958) . Type deposited: USNM. Diagnosis: Aspis without median crista or lateral carina . Bothridial squama situated below the trichobothrium.Posterior median apodeme absent ,laterocentral apodeme short, sinus line.absent. Prodorsal setae arising in normal position, in axial rows. Notogaster with terminal sinus. Genito-aggenital and ano-adanal suture completely developed, anogenital cleft reduced, very small or absent. Internal transversal apodeme observable. No setae before tectum kag . Palp 3-segmented with setal formula: 2-3-8+1. Legs tridactylous, with tarsal neotrichy. Solenidia oJ ^ and of leg II without coupled setae. Genu IV with or without solenidium.* Seta d on tibia IV coupled with solenidium *f . Trochanters III and IV bearing 2-3 setae. Elementary chaetotaxy: A: 4, N: 15, Ly: 5, S: 7, 9-12, Ag: 2, An: 0-3, Ad: 4. Remarks: The identification and the synonymy of the "species" (Aoki 1980: 79 ), as»well as the homogeneity of the genus require further study.** Mesotritia Forsslund, 1963 Mesotritia Forsslund, 1963: 289.
