The latter setae are claw-like, not apposable, and probably are used for scraping or burrowing. Other than a within-genus tendency towards hypotrichy among some of the leg segments, which is subject to considerable homoplasy, members of these two genera do not share other apomorphic attributes that would indicate a sister-group relationship.
