Comments

The Spondyliaspidinae is strongly supported as a monophylum in both mtg trees, morphologically ( Burckhardt 1991a) and by the pattern of sperm formation ( Labina et al. 2014). The concept of the subfamily is the same as that by Burckhardt & Ouvrard (2012). In the mtg analyses there is a wellsupported basal split between Ctenarytaina Ferris & Klyver, 1932 and the remainder of the subfamily ( Anoeconeossa Taylor, 1987 , Australopsylla Tuthill & Taylor, 1955 , Blastopsylla Taylor, 1985 , Boreioglycaspis Moore, 1964 , Cardiaspina Crawford, 1911 , Creiis Scott, 1882 , Cryptoneossa Taylor, 1990 , Glycaspis Taylor, 1960 , Lasiopsylla Froggatt, 1900 and Platyobria Taylor, 1987 ).
