Key to species of the genus Monographis

The key is for characters observed in adults only, as subadults or immatures may not have as many bacilliform sensilla mentioned in this key ( Monographis mira and M. annandalei have incomplete descriptions published by Turk (1947), and Silvestri (1948), respectively, therefore cannot be included in this key).
