Key to Bothriomiris and Dashymenia

1. Antennal segment I constricted at basal one fourth ( Wolski & Gorczyca, 2012: figs. 3–4, 28); metepisternum covered with more or less densely distributed punctures ( Wolski & Gorczyca, 2012: fig. 26); ostiolar peritreme obtuse, matte, covered with minute, fine setae ( Wolski & Gorczyca, 2012: 27); endosoma simple, with a sclerotized part of ductus seminis (DSS) thin, nearly parallel-sided along entire length or tapering; endosomal sclerites absent or very weakly developed ( Figs. 7, 10 ; Yasunaga 2000: fig. 85; Wolski & Gorczyca, 2012: fig. 36)................... ............................................................... Bothriomiris Kirkaldy

2. Antennal segment I cylindrical, weakly narrowed basally ( Wolski & Gorczyca, 2012: figs. 55, 64, 74); metepisternum impunctate ( Figs. 2, 4, 6 ; Wolski & Gorczyca, 2012: figs. 50–51, 69–70); ostiolar peritreme characteristically rounded, devoid of microtrichae and shiny ( Figs. 2, 6 ; Wolski & Gorczyca, 2012; Figs. 71); endosoma with a DSS stout, strongly broadened basally and with a fully set of sclerites ( Figs. 11, 14, 17 : Yasunaga & Miyamoto 2006: fig. 3J; Wolski & Gorczyca, 2012: figs. 39, 57–58, 60–61, 80, 84) ...................................... .................................................................
