Notes

Helcostizus is transferred here from the Phygadeuontini , following the molecular phylogenetic results of Laurenne et al. (2006). The combination of morphological characters associated with parasitising wood-boring hosts had previously led Townes & Townes (1962) to classify this genus in the Cryptini . Distribution data from Townes (1983) and Schwarz and Shaw (2010).
