The Usiini are confined to the southern Palaearctic. The species are weak fliers and are usually encountered resting on flowers, chiefly Asteraceae . They show a remarkable convergence with the southern African Mariobezziinae both in appearance and behaviour
(e.g. Johnson & Dafni 1998). Evenhuis (1990 a) redefined the genera and transferred several species from Usia to Parageron .
