Genus Electrapis Cockerell

The genus Electrapis Cockerell as currently circumscribed is likely paraphyletic, encompassing a breadth of disparate morphologies. Accordingly, names are applied here to the most readily distinctive groups. Relationships of these taxa to other Electrapis or other electrapine genera are murky, and for this reason these entities are retained as subgenera pending further work and more completely preserved material.
