DISCUSSION: Schuhistes Menard was placed in the Leucophoropterini based on its superficial similarity to Karoocapsus and its relatively small, simple endosoma and genital capsule. However, unlike all Leucophoropterini , Schuhistes has relatively large pulvilli that nearly encompass the length of the underside of the claw ( Menard, 2010 : fig. 3b), and brachypterous, rounded wings in females that barely cover the apex of the abdomen ( Menard, 2010 : fig. 1). Leucophoropterini have pulvilli that only partially cover the ventral surface of the claw, and females have complete wings that extend past the apex of the abdomen. With the pending removal of Karoocapsus from the Leucophoropterini , as well as it grouping with several other South African taxa in the Phylini not closely related to the Leucophoropterini on the basis of morphological and molecular data (Menard et al., in press), Schuhistes is temporarily placed in the Phylini pending placement with other South African taxa in a new tribe.
