H. Aspöck et al. (1991), Haring et al. (2011), Monserrat and Papenberg (2012, 2015). The genus is markedly differentiated by morphological characters of adults and larvae and also by molecular phylogeny. It has emerged as the sister group of ( Puncha + Calabroraphidia ) + Xanthostigma . Venustoraphidia comprises Subilla three geographically vicariant species.

Biology and ecology.

Larvae corticolous on a great variety of deciduous and coniferous trees. Development usually two years. Last hibernation stage: full-grown larva. Adults: (EIV)V-VI(BVII).
