Indeed, Mevans. According to http://www.henneth-annun.net/bios_view.cfm?SCID=272, it would appear that some Tatyarin Avari and the Penni Clan of the Vale of Anduin made it quite far west, with the Tatyarins even reaching Beleriand.

That reminds me--with the known Avarin clans, perhaps they could be worked into Dorwinion? They could be one of the clans of the Avari (I would say, with absolutely no evidence, they could be the Cuind Clan) who live in the forests and woods of Dorwinion. That would both link their kinship with Mirkwood (said to  have many Penni among them) and also provide a way to include these little-known Avarin features.

For those who may not have heard of these guys, Tolkien mentioned in The War of the Jewels that there were six Avarin clans, the Penni, Cuind, Kindi, Hwenti, Windan, and Kind-lai. Nothing else is known about them, but they could lead to some interesting subfactions.
