Family PHYLLOTYMOLINIDAE Tavares, 1998 View in CoL
Sternites 7 and 8 are bent perpendiculary to the sternites 4-6 and are contiguous ( Tavares 1998); suture 6/7 is complete (M. Tavares pers. comm.). It was not possible to prepare the skeleton of a phyllotymolinid. But the key of the phyllotymolinid genera given by Tavares (1998: 118) was partly based on the location of the spermathecae. Their apertures are either nearly contiguous (genus Lonchodactylus Tavares & Lemaitre, 1996 ) or very apart, being indicated by a well defined bump (genera Phyllotymolinum Tavares, 1993 and Genkaia Miyake & Takeda, 1970 ). In a preceding work, Tavares (1994: 219, fig. 56) considered close spermathecae the apomorphic condition.
