Lyssomaninae Blackwall

Maddison & Needham (2006) present evidence that this group is polyphyletic or paraphyletic, with Goleba (and perhaps the other Old World genera) belonging apart from Lyssomanes Hentz. Nonetheless we retain Goleba with the lyssomanines until the Old World genera are better studied. Goleba was revised by Wanless (1980); an additional species was described by Szüts (2001).
