Subfamily Gumillinae Navás, 1912

This unusual subfamily is mainly represented in the fossil record; it is currently composed by nine Mesozoic Genera sparsely distributed in Brazil, China, England, Kazakhstan, and Myanmar and only one extant genus distributed in the New World ( Menon & Makarkin 2008; Yang et al. 2010; Myskowiak et al. 2016). The group is characterized by the following combination of characters: antennae filiform, much longer than forewing, scape extremely enlarged, flagellomeres elongated; wing reticulation irregular, without outer gradiform series of crossveins ( Menon & Makarkin 2008).
