Hoffman (1992), proposed a new classification which divides Mantispa in various genera in his revision on the Mantispinae of America. The author’s study was based on the species groups in the review of Penny & da Costa (1983). Consequently Mantispa is restricted only to the Old World. Thus, the gracilis group, became Dicromantispa Hoffman, 2002 , the minuta group, was divided into genera Leptomantispa Hoffman, 2002 and Zeugomantispa Hoffman, 2002 ; and the phthisica group is now referred to as the genus Buyda Navás, 1926 . Other genera were proposed for species that could not be assigned to any of the above, as in the case of Haematomantispa Hoffman, 2002 and Xeromantispa Hoffman, 2002 .
