Four species of the genus Hippopodina Levinsen, 1909 are described from material originally attributed to Hippopodina feegeensis (Busk, 1884). The type species Lepralia feegeensis is redescribed and three further species of Hippopodina are recognized: H. pulcherrima (Canu & Bassler, 1928), H. iririkiensis sp. nov. and H. viriosa sp. nov.
