Taxonomic notes.

As it was stated correctly in the original description, this genus shows close relationship with Hada Billberg, 1820, especially to Hada tenebra , etc. The lateral “pouches” of ductus also show some similarity to Kollariana but the short, globular corpus bursae without signa clearly shows that this genus is differentiated from the former genus.
