Rhinocolinae (Klimaszewski, 1993)

Burckhardt, D. & Basset, Y., 2000, The jumping plant-lice (Hemiptera, Psylloidea) associated with Schinus (Anacardiaceae): systematics, biogeography and host plant relationships, Journal of Natural History 34 (1), pp. 57-155 : 126-128

Rhinocolinae

The systematics and biology of the Rhinocolinae were discussed by Burckhardt and Lauterer (1989) who provided keys to the constituent taxa. Park (1996) synonymized Koreaphalara Kwon with Rhusaphalara Park and Lee which he referred to the Rhinocolinae . Here we add also Notophyllura Hodkinson from the Euphyllurinae and `Paurocephala ’ longicella (cf. discussion below), and provide keys for the New World taxa.
