Key to genera of
Lygistorrhinidae
We include
Lygistorrhina asiatica
in the key separately because a new genus is needed for it. According to the phylogenetic analysis (
Fig. 1
) it is the sister group of all other living
Lygistorrhinidae
.
Lygistorrhina
(
Lygistorrhina
)
and
Lygistorrhina
(
Probolaeus
)
are separated even if their monophyly is not yet shown. The sexual dimorphism in the species of the
Lygistorrhinidae
is largely unknown and it is possible that some of the characters used below apply only to males.
