Batelka, Jan, 2011, Contribution to the synonymies, distributions, and bionomics of the Old World species of Macrosiagon (Coleoptera: Ripiphoridae), Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae 51 (2), pp. 587-626 : 618

Macrosiagon limbata species group

Included species. Four extant species, M. axillaris , M. limbata (Fabricius, 1781) , M. linearis (Leconte, 1866) and M. pusilla , and one fossil species M. deuvei Batelka, Collomb et Nel, 2006 (Eocene, France).

Diagnosis. Species from this group are definable by having long, parallel sided and slender elytra, being convex along the elytral suture, medial lobe of the pronotal disc without an elevation and very long thread-like antennal rami in males (in M. deuvei only two female specimens are known).
