Wimveria gen. nov. is established to accommodate Schizotricha divergens Naumov, 1960. Though this species should clearly be referred to the family Kirchenpaueriidae, no existing genus seems suitable. A redescription of the species and a diagnosis of Wimveria gen. nov. are given. Descriptors: Wimveria divergens, Schizotricha divergens (31.xii.1998). figs 1-9.
