The monotypie genus Dasytomima (type species: D. rachelae sp. nov.) from southeastern Australia is described and illustrated, and its relationship to the Neotropical genus Polypria Chevrolat, 1874 is discussed. A cladistic analysis of these two taxa, nine exemplar genera of Oedemeridae, one genus each of Synchroidae and Stenotrachelidae, with 37 adult characters using Winclada/Nona produced two shortest trees, in which Calopus+Sparedrus, Dasytomimus+Polypria and the remaining oedemerid taxa form three monophyletic groups. Based on this analysis, Dasytomima and Polypria are placed in Polypriinae, subfam. nov., Calopodinae is recognized at the subfamily level, and all other oedemerid genera are placed in Oedemerinae; the monophyly of Nacerini+Ditylini is not supported.
