Diagnosis.
This genus can be distinguished from other genera of
Anomaloninae
by the following combination of character states: (1) eyes bare; (2) lower margin of clypeus with a median apical tooth (
Figs 2, 4
); (3) frons with a median longitudinal carina (
Figs 2, 3
); (4) occipital carina complete (
Figs 3–5
); (5) mandible with two distinct teeth (
Fig. 2
); (6) upper margin of pronotum with a weak longitudinal impression (
Fig. 5
); (7) antero-ventral corner of pronotum with a tooth (
Fig. 5
); (8) mesoscutum rounded, and its anterior margin with a weak concavity (
Fig. 5
); (9) notauli present (
Fig. 5
); (10) epicnemial carina present, its upper end reaching front margin of mesopleuron at the level of lower end of pronotum (
Fig. 5
); (11) posterior transverse carina of mesosternum interrupted at the front of mid coxa; (12) scutellum convex (
Fig. 5
); (13) postscutellum longer than its width (
Fig. 6
); (14) fore wing with CI=0.8–1.1; (15)
2rs-m
on fore wing straight; (16) hind wing with
Cu1
; (17) fore coxa smooth, without carina or its vestige; and (18) mid tibia with two spurs.
Distribution.
Nearctic (

United States of America
) and Palaearctic (

,

) regions (

). New to

.
Bionomics.
Two noctuid moths (
Agrotis segetum
and
Panolis flammea
), four geometer moths (
Bupalus piniarius
,
Caripeta divisata
,
Macaria granitata
, and
M
.
liturata
), and a single lasiocampid moth (
Dendrolimus pini
) have been reported as hosts of
H
.
biguttatum
(

et al
. 2012
)
.
Remarks.
This genus is closely related to
Aphanistes
,
Barylypa
, and
Habronyx
based on morphological characteristics (
Gauld 1976
). Japanese species of
Habrocampulum
have previously been misidentified as
Aphanistes
, because they are closely related and have common characteristics (e.g., anterior margin of mesoscutum with concavity and frons with a median longitudinal carina), but
Habrocampulum
can be distinguished from
Aphanistes
and the other Japanese genera of
Anomaloninae
by the following update key.
