The tribe Anthracini is readily recognised by the structure of the antenna. Yeates (1994) emphasises the presence of a circlet of hairs at the apex of the antenna as diagnostic, but this is absent in the neotropical genus Walkeromyia Paramonov and present in some species of Xeramoeba . Most of the genera are difficult to determine on external characters, but recent studies on the male and female genitalia support the recognition of these genera.
