Common, 1973 provided the clue for identifying specimens in Burmese amber as lophocoronids. A correct association of males and females in Burmese amber is, however, a difficult venture. There are no unique characters other than genitalia, which would permit combining sexes. The structures of the female postabdomen are described in the generic description, but without assigning female specimens to one of the described males.

gen. nov. The individuals are in most cases embedded in an unfavourable position and exhibit only a reduced number of characters. But none of the externally visible traits contradict the diagnosis and description of the genus. Cross-veins are often difficult to see and they may appear to be absent in some individuals. This uncertainty makes the character unreliable and reduces its taxonomic weight. The following species are described and included in

gen. nov. essentially on the basis of the male genitalia. The morphology and arrangements of spines and denticules on apical parts of the valvae constitute the principal character complex, which exhibits a large variety allowing the separation and establishment of different species. The following descriptions of new species are short and concentrate on the male genitalia and their illustrations. The depicted features are diagnostic enough to distinguish the presented species and to identify new species in fresh, additional material of Burmese amber, which hopefully will continue to become available for scientific study in the future.
