Selander (1991) again placed Calydus in the

Mylabrini . Bologna (1991a), however, considered only the subgenus Calydabris

Kaszab as mylabrine (see No. 48, below), and moved the nominate subgenus to the

Lyttini , where it is treated here. The placement of Calydus as a lyttine genus

(Bologna, 1991a) is based on male genitalia and mesosternal structure, but its position within the tribe is not clear.
