Genus Cardiodactylus Saussure, 1878 View in CoL
DIAGNOSIS. — Among Lebinthini genera, Cardiodactylus is characterised by its large size, long wings most often with whitish spots in both sexes, male FW venation (Wshaped harp veins, mirror incomplete generally elongated longitudinally), and male genitalia (pseudepiphallic dorso-lateral crests, posterior apex of pseudepiphallus more or less spoon-like).
REMARKS
Based on male genitalic structure, Otte (2007a) defined two species groups within Cardiodactylus , the Efordi group and the Novaeguineae group.
