Remarks

For comparison of Fidia with the genus Neofidia Strother nom. nov., see ‘Remarks’ under Neofidia Strother nom. nov. The Old World genus Fidia belongs to a comparatively large genus-group of the tribe Adoxini , including the genera with bifid claws, straight fore margin of lateral arms of pronotum (‘propleura’), simple intercoxal mesothoracic process and tooth on underside of each femur. It is poorly delimited from the genus Hyperaxis Gemminger & Harold, 1874 , having a difference in longer pronotum, narrower hind femora with smaller tooth and smaller eyes.

Distribution

China, Indo-China, India, Japan, Korea, Laos, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam.

Generic diagnosis

Body oblong, adorned with setae and or scales. Frons merges with vertex, hardly differentiated. Antenna filiform, longer than half of body length, longer than body length in some cases. Second antennomere usually shorter than first, longer than half of it, shorter than next three or four. Compound eyes lateral, hemispherical, feebly or not emarginate near antennal sockets. Antennal calli absent. Pronotum longer than wide or subquadrate, narrower than elytra, lateral margins incomplete, fore margin of lateral arms of pronotum (‘propleuron’) straight. Pygidium with or without elytral locking groove. Legs long, slender, all femora slightly thickened and toothed beneath, all tibiae longitudinally sulcate with rows of setae, mid- and hind tibiae not emarginate at apex, with short stout paired spines on apex. Claws bifid.
