Genus Yoshiobodes Mahunka, 1986

Type species: Carabodes irmayi Balogh & Mahunka, 1969

New generic diagnosis (based on data from Mahunka (1986), with our additions)

Lamellae large, simple, convergent but separated, usually forming a prolamella-like ridge. Translamella absent or present. Rostral setae setiform or phylliform, inserted on rostrum. Lamellar setae thick, serrate, rarely setiform. Interlamellar setae widely or narrowly phylliform, inserted on lamellae. A transverse ridge on lamellae (anteriorly to interlamellar setae) absent or present. Sensilli narrowly spindle-form (with strong spines unilaterally) or clavate. Fifteen or fourteen pairs of notogastral setae evenly spaced; setae usually widely phylliform, rarely narrowly phylliform or truncate, dilated distally, morphological differences in setae absent or present (all or some setae of c - row simple or narrowly phylliform, others widely phylliform and truncate, dilated distally). Centrodorsal part of notogaster evenly convex, often with tuberculate surface, without apophyses, strong ridges or depressions. Humeral regions without or with concavity (indistinct or well-visible). One to two pairs of notogastral setae inserted in humeral position of notogaster. Posterior of notogaster with four pairs of notogastral setae (h 1, p 1– p 3). Four to six pairs of genital, one pair of aggenital, two pairs of anal and three pairs of adanal setae present. Leg tarsi with one smooth claw.

Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) Mahunka, 1986

Type species: Carabodes irmayi Balogh & Mahunka, 1969

Subgeneric diagnosis (based on data from Mahunka (1986), with our additions)

With main traits of the genus Yoshiobodes . Sensilli narrowly spindle-form (with strong spines unilaterally) or with short stalk and large clavate head. Fifteen or fourteen pairs of phylliform notogastral setae of similar morphology. Four pairs of genital setae.

Yoshiobodes (Berndobodes) Mahunka, 1986

Type species: Berndobodes spiculifer Mahunka, 1986

Subgeneric diagnosis (based on data from Mahunka (1986), with our additions)

With main traits of the genus Yoshiobodes . Sensilli with long stalk and small, clavate head. Fifteen pairs of notogastral setae of different morphology: all or some setae of c -row narrowly phylliform or simple; other setae widely phylliform and truncate, dilated distally. Four pairs of genital setae.
