Introduction

Cacodacnus hebridanus is a species complex with at least 4 species that have uncertain boundaries. Two synonyms, C. hebridanus and C. deplanchei are included here but their presence in Australia is uncertain given their type specimens are not from Australia, a third species from Norfolk Island (C. rasilis) is included separately.
