Key to the tribes of Dendroleontinae

1 Forewing: Banksian lines absent; metathorax: Miller’s organ absent; female terminalia: anterior gonapophyses and membranous digitiform processes absent; male terminalia: gonarcus a simple arch; parameres always larger than gonarcus (lateral view)................................................................................... Acanthoplectrini

- Forewing: anterior Banksian line present (posterior Banksian line present or absent); metathorax: Miller’s organ usually present; female terminalia: anterior gonapophyses sometimes present; membranous digitiform processes usually present; male terminalia: gonarcus generally more than a simple arch; parameres usually smaller than gonarcus + mediuncus (lateral view)........................................................................................
