Protalges australis.— Berlese 1897: 72; Canestrini & Kramer 1899: 91; Rainbow 1906: 185; Cleland 1922: 100; Radford 1953: 210, 1958: 158.
Hemialges australis.—S. Mironov, 2023, personal communication.
Host and locality in Australia: Glyciphila fasciata, Australia (Trouessart 1885c; Canestrini & Kramer 1899; Rainbow 1906; Cleland 1922).
Current name of host: Bar-breasted Honeyeater, Ramsayornis fasciatus (Gould, 1843) (Passeriformes: Meliphagidae).
Notes: Gaud & Atyeo (1982b, 1996a) reported that the mites in the genus Protalges are restricted to hummingbirds (Trochilidae) which do not occur in Australia, and that identification is here corrected.
