Hydraena Kugelann, 1794 View in CoL
Hydraena Kugelann, 1794: 578 View in CoL (type species Hydraena riparia Kugelann 1794: 579 View in CoL ).
The hyperdiverse, cosmopolitan genus Hydraena View in CoL is well defined by the following autapomorphic morphological characteristics: 1) presence of a labral-mandibular interlocking device ( Perkins 1989), 2) mentum with an acute median projection anteriorly ( Perkins 1989), 3) various complex sensilla ( Perkins 1997), and 4) specialized features of the exocrine secretion delivery system ( Perkins 1997). There is general agreement among current workers that Hydraena View in CoL is monophyletic, based on these morphological characters (for example, Jäch et al. 2000).
