PHRUDINAE Townes & Townes, 1949
Notes
Following the phylogenetic results of Quicke et al. (2009), the Tersilochinae now encompasses the former subfamily Phrudinae (containing the genera Astrenis , Phrudus and Pygmaeolus in Britain) (they also synonymised Neorhacodinae under Tersilochinae but I don’t follow that decision). Distribution data for the ‘tersilochine’ genera from Horstmann (1971), Horstmann (1981a) and material in BMNH and NMS, mostly determined by K. Horstmann and, latterly, A. Khalaim; distribution data for the ‘phrudine’ genera from Gauld and Fitton (1980) and Vikberg and Koponen (2000); additional references are given.
