Notes. Despite debatable generic status, the following genera: Indopalpares, Palpares, and Parapalpares can be distinguished by characters proposed by Insom & Carfi (1988) and present examination: 1) Size of labial palp smaller in Indopalpares, larger in Palpares and Parapalpares; 2) Prothoracic markings wholly brownish yellow, without distinct median longitudinal stripe in Parapalpares, with a distinct median stripe in Indopalpares and Palpares; 3) Abdominal markings on lateral margins and posterior margin of tergites 6–8 narrowly yellow in Indopalpares, uniformly pale brown in Palpares and Parapalpares; 4) Shape of male ectoprocts cylindrical, distinctly curved at base in Indopalpares, moderately curved at base in Parapalpares and Palpares; 5) Shape of male sternite 9: Acutely tapering at apex in Indopalpares, round in Palpares and Parapalpares; 6) Gonocoxites 9 paired and widely separated from each other, with acute apex and acutely tapering basal projection in Parapalpares, closely spaced, with obtuse apex and basal projection absent or obtuse in Indopalpares and Palpares; 7) Gonocoxites 9 with median sensory bulla present in Indopalpares, indistinct in Palpares and Parapalpares; and 8) Gonarcal bulla feebly developed in Indopalpares, distinct in Palpares and Parapalpares .
