A KEY TO THE GENERA OF MINUNTHOZETINAE

1 (6) Posterior median tectum of notogaster divided in the middle, the two lobes overlapping.

2 (3) Lamellae far removed from each other, placed marginally. Translamella missing.................................... Alpizetes Mahunka, 2001

3 (2) Lamellae close to each other, placed medially. Translamella present.

4 (5) Notogaster with four pairs of areae porosae. Interlamellar setae removed from each other, placed close to lamellae ........................ Zachvatkinibates Saldybina, 1973

5 (4) Notogaster with three pairs of areae porosae. Interlamellar setae placed medially, close to each other...................... Schweizerzetes gen. n.

6 (1) Posterior median tectum intact, undivided in the middle.

7 (14) Anterior tectum of mentum elongate, galumnoid type.

8 (9) Lamellae far removed from each other, placed marginally. Translamella missing..................................... Feiderzetes Subías, 1977

9 (8) Lamellae close to each other, placed medially. Translamella present.

10 (13) Interlamellar setae long, reaching rostral apex.

11 (12) Notogaster with normal areae porosae.......... Punctoribates Berlese, 1908

12 (11) Notogaster with modified areae porosae, or with sacculi ................................... Semipunctoribates Mahunka, 1987

13 (10) Interlamellar setae short, reaching only to level of translamella ..................................... Minunthozetes C. L. Koch, 1835

14 (7) Anterior tectum of mentum normal, ceratozetoid type ............................................. Ellipsozetes Bernini, 1980

The following three genera most likely belong to this subfamily, but their placing in the above key, in the absence of knowledge of some fundamentally important characteristics, is as yet impossible.
