Subgenus Sphenoma MANNERHEIM 1830

Sphenoma was previously represented in the Palaearctic region by eighteen species (ASSING 2009, 2011). The subgenus is poorly defined and the subgeneric affiliations of several species currently attributed to Sphenoma have not been revised. Only one Oxypoda species, O. (Sphenoma) kirghisica ASSING 2009, was known from Kyrgyzstan.
