Subfamily Passalinae Leach, 1815 View in CoL (subfamily here redefined to include a smaller group of taxa)

This branch was supported by one synapomorphy:

[Character 17] Ileum with symmetrical, lateral diverticula (0); asymmetrical (1). Unambiguous optimization (ci = 100; ri = 100).

At this level, lateral diverticula were asymmetrical in numbers and size on both surfaces of the ileum, giving it a more flattened appearance ( Figs 6 View FIGURE 6 , 7 View FIGURE 7 ). This character state was apomorphic.
