Moromorpha Rolston, 1978a View in CoL
Superficially, specimens of this genus are very similar in appearance to Mormidea species. There are some differences in the morphology of the male genitalia, but the most distinctive character is that specimens of Moromorpha possess a small, posteriorly-directed, tooth-like extension along the posterior margin pronotum laterad of each side of the scutellum. At present, this genus contains only one species.
