Genus:
Cladotanytarsus
Kieffer, 1921
The genus
Cladotanytarsus
is divided into two subgenera:
Cladotanytarsus
s. str
.
Kieffer, 1921 and
Lenziella
Kieffer, 1922 (
Giłka 2011b
,
Giłka & Spies 2012
,
Puchalski & Giłka 2017
). Since no character typical of
Lenziella
(a globular basal swelling in the inferior volsella nor lobes of the mid and hind leg tibiae apices) has been found in
C. sinjongensis
males, we place the species in the subgenus
Cladotanytarsus
s. str
.
The genus is represented by nearly 80 species known from all continents except
Antarctica
(
Puchalski
et al.
2018
). From
North Korea
, apart from
C. sinjongensis
, now found and redescribed below, two
Cladotanytarsus
species
have so far been recorded by
Reiss (1980)
, but determined to the genus level, as
Cladotanytarsus
sp. K
1 and K2.
