Tribe * Ctenarytainini White & Hodkinson, 1985 , stat. rev., sensu novo

Comments

Burckhardt (1991a) suggested that the tribe Ctenarytainini sensu White & Hodkinson (1985) and Taylor (1990) is probably not monophyletic. The mtg analyses confirm this. Here we define the tribe in a new sense by the presence in the adult of a longitudinal comb of bristles on the mesotibia and a knob-like meracanthus, the latter character probably being a symplesiomorphy.
