Subfamily Selenocephalinae
Tribe Selenocephalini

Return to start of key

The Selenocephalinae were reviewed by Zhang and Webb (1996) who noted that the Selenocephalini displayed no unique diagnostic features. This raises doubts that the Tribe, which is mainly African in distribution, is monophyletic. One genus, Moluccasia Zhang and Webb containing two species, is known from the region covered by this package and both species are restricted to Maluku (Molucca Islands) in Indonesia.
