REMARKS. The genus was recently redescribed with the addition of multiple new species ( Sanborn 2019). The characteristics given for the tribe also distinguish the only currently assigned genus, Selymbria , within the Selymbriini . The obvious structures to distinguish the genus are the triangular head when viewed from the dorsal side, prominent eyes, recurved ridge on the posterior timbal cavity, and the long uncus.
DISTRIBUTION. Species of the genus have been reported from Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Costa Rica, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guatemala, Panama, and Peru ( Metcalf 1963c; Sanborn 2011a; 2013; 2018c; 2019; Sanborn & Heath 2014).
