Note.
The photos of
Tetrica fasciatifrons
syntype
(
Figs 24, 25
) deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum (Budapest,
Hungary
) were examined. The species is placed in the genus
Papunega
gen. nov.
as it corresponds to the diagnostic characters of the genus mentioned above.
We do not include currently
Tetrica suffusa
Melichar, 1906
to the genus
Papunega
gen. nov.
as this species is characterised by coryphe with distinctly convex anterior margin and glib fore wings with multibranched median vein (
Melichar, 1906, Fig. 72 and unpublished data of V.M. Gnezdilov
). The taxonomic position of this species will be solved later (Gnezdilov, in preparation).
