Genus Monodrilus Pic, 1921

Monodrilus Pic, 1921b: 12. Gender: masculine. Type species. Monodrilus marginatus Pic, 1921; by monotypy.

Remarks.

Monodrilus has more or less serrate antennae and relatively long elytra, and currently contains two species from Indonesia (Java) and Vietnam, respectively, each in a monotypic subgenus. Following Wittmer (1944), we retain the concept of Monodrilus with two subgenera; however, Pic (1930b) already suggested Dodecatomorpha could be a separate genus. A proper taxonomic revision should be conducted to resolve the status of Dodecatomorpha .
