We study a system of phase oscillators on a bipartite network, with $N_1$ oscillators in one partition, and $N_2( \ge N_1)$ in the other. The coupling between oscillators in different partitions is nonlocal. Different types of chimeric states are observed as a function of the ratio $\gamma \equiv N_1/N_2$ in the range 1$\le \gamma \le 0$. When $N_1$ = 1, namely when the network has the star topology, a fully desynchronized state results.
