One species of Chimerothalassius Shamshev & Grootaert, namely C. marshalli sp. nov. is described from New Zealand, and two other species, namely C. riparius sp. nov. and C. sinclairi sp. nov. are described from New Caledonia. Two species of Microphorella Becker, namely M. bungle sp. nov. and M. viticula sp. nov., are described from Australia. These new parathalassiine descriptions increase the Australasian species diversity of Chimerothalassius and Microphorella to four species each. In addition, the genus Eothalassius Shamshev & Grootaert is recorded from New Caledonia based on a single female, and the male genitalia of the Australian species M. iota Colless is newly illustrated. A key to the genera and species of male Parathalassiinae in the Australasian Region is also provided.
描述了来自新西兰的一种嵌合海蠋属（Chimerothalassius）的物种，即新种马歇尔嵌合海蠋（C. marshalli sp. nov.），以及来自新喀里多尼亚的另外两个物种，即新种河岸嵌合海蠋（C. riparius sp. nov.）和新种辛克莱嵌合海蠋（C. sinclairi sp. nov.）。描述了来自澳大利亚的两种微翅蠋属（Microphorella）的物种，即新种邦格尔微翅蠋（M. bungle sp. nov.）和新种葡萄微翅蠋（M. viticula sp. nov.）。这些新的副海蠋亚科物种描述使嵌合海蠋属和微翅蠋属在澳大拉西亚地区的物种多样性均增加到四个物种。此外，基于一只雌性个体记录了来自新喀里多尼亚的始海蠋属（Eothalassius），并首次展示了澳大利亚物种微小微翅蠋（M. iota Colless）的雄性生殖器。还提供了澳大拉西亚地区雄性副海蠋亚科属和种的检索表。
