Key to extant genera of
Odiniidae
in the Neotropical Region and to species of the
Pauximyia
gen. nov.
(modified from
Gaimari & Mathis 2011
)
1. Posterior ocelli in line with inner vertical setae; ocelli arranged in equilateral triangle or with distance between posterior pair greater than between posterior ocellus and anterior ocellus; frons flat to slightly concave. Scutellar disc bare. In profile, face usually distinctly angulate with frons at antennal insertion (
Odiniinae
)......................
Odinia
Robineau-Desvoidy
- Posterior ocelli in front of line between inner vertical setae; ocelli usually arranged in isosceles triangle with distance between posterior pair conspicuously less than between posterior ocellus and anterior ocellus; frons usually relatively arched (sometimes conspicuously tuberculate). Scutellar disc sometimes setulose. In profile, face and frons more or less in line or sloping (

9. Face uniformly yellow, lacking mid-longitudinal stripe. Lunule higher than frons. Antennae separated by a distance greater than
3X
the diameter of a single antennal socket. Vein M

becoming distinctly weaker from crossvein dm-m towards wing margin....................................................................................
Helgreelia

normal, distinctly reaching wing margin...........................................................
