Key to Genera of Former
Cryphalini
and
Xyloterini
This key is made with the diagnostic characters to enable identification of the tribes Coriacephilini,
Cryphalini
, Trypophloini, Xyloteini, or Ernoporini.
Corthylini
genera are not included since a thorough review of the tribe would be needed to accurately place the genera in a key.
Atomothenemus
Bright, 2019
,
Microsomus
Bright, 2019
, and
Pygmaeoborus
Bright, 2019
, all from the West Indies, were described during the final preparation of the manuscript and not included in this key.

Trypophloeus
5b. Lateral margins of pronotum rounded or with carina. Antennal club flattened, with or without sutures, usually transverse or procurved, apex rounded. Various hosts, widespread distribution, in tropical to temperate areas. Proventriculus with apical plate much more than one fifth of total length (except not sclerotized in
Macrocryphalus

6
6a. Lateral margins of pronotum rounded. Antennal funicle always with five segments. Antennal club shape tapered proximally, with a weakly visible procurved suture. Elytra covered in hair-like interstrial ground vestiture. Striae not apparent. Proventriculus not sclerotized......................
Macrocryphalus
6b. Lateral margins of pronotum with carina. Antennal funicle with 2−5 segments. Antennal club shape and sutures variable. Elytra interstrial ground vestiture variable. Striae usually visible (except some
Afrocosmoderes

7
7a. Mesocoxae contiguous. Body shape elongate, more than 2.3x as long as wide. Antennae always with 2−3 funicular segments, with the first segment longer than the subsequent funicle segments combined. Antennal club flat and without sutures...............................................................
