Remarks

Hill et al. (2021) noted molecular phylogenetic evidence of confusion between the tribes Gaeanini Distant, 1905 and Leptopsaltriini Moulton, 1923 and suggested that Gaeanini could perhaps be redefined as a subtribe within Leptopsaltriini . However, in such a case tribe Gaeanini would take priority since it is the older family group. In this paper, we refrain from synonymising Leptopsaltriini with Gaeanini , awaiting a further comprehensive morphological review.
