All three taxa are probably not closely related, and they elytral coloration need not to be a synapomorphy. More likely it represents a homoplastic adaptive response to arid conditions or correlate with the color of preferred flowers.

Volcanic oceanic islands without previous connection to mainland are ideal to study long-range dispersal. Natural colonization of oceanic islands by insects falls into the following four categories: (1) passive aerial dispersal by wind currents, (2) rafting on organic matter, (3) phoresy on the surface of rafting or flying animals and (4) active aerial dispersal of winged species.
