TYPE SPECIES: Protobombus basilaris Engel, 2001a.
DIAGNOSIS: The subgenus is distinctive among species of Protobombus for the combination of three submarginal cells and a basal vein proximal to 1cu-a.
ETYMOLOGY: The new subgeneric name is a combination of the Greek words thnētós (ΘΝητός, “mortal”) and bómbos (βόμβος, “humming”). The gender of the name is masculine.
INCLUDED SPECIES: The subgenus presently includes two species, P. (Thnetobombus) basilaris Engel in Bartonian Baltic amber and P. (T.) pristinus Wappler & Engel from the Lutetian Eckfeld Maar (Engel, 2001a; Wappler & Engel, 2003).
