MICROCONOPINI GIBSON TRIB. NOV.
Type genus Microconops Kröber, 1915e: 77 . Included genera: Australoconops Camras 1961: 64 , Microconops . Uncontroverted morphological autapomorphy: presence of a medial spine on the epandrium (116).
Gibson et al. (2012) also recover a monophyletic Microconopini using molecular and morphological analysis of species of both Australoconops and Microconops . Members of Microconopini have not been placed within any tribe in previous classifications.
Schneider, 2010 lists Microconops ornatus Kröber, 1915e as the type species for Microconops , as designated by Smith, 1989. This is incorrect as a type was previously designated by Malloch.
Species examined – Australoconops perbellum ; Australoconops phaeomeros ; Australoconops unicinctus ; Microconops nigrithorax ; Microconops ornatus ; Microconops similis ; Microconops tasmaniensis .
