Tribe Solitaneini Leraut, 1980

(Fig. 81)

Leraut (1980) separated the tribe without giving a diagnosis. The genus Solitsnea Djakonov has some unusual for larentiines features: female bursa copulatrix with a ring of flat spines across the equatorial part: tegumen with a pair of tapering projections with unknown function; valva with all its parts well fused and chitinized, flat, without ornamentation.

It is noteworthy that flat signa occur in female bursa of the Erateinini too, but arranged into a longitudinal band. Sihvonen et al. (2011) included the Solitaneini in their tree but used Baptria Hübner as an example species; however, Baptria is just an as solitary genus in Larentiinae as Solitanea is.

Distribution: Palaearctic.
