Notes. The New World species of Paradelius de Saeger are transferred to Sculptomyriola Belokobylskij because of having no prepectal carina (Shimbori et al. 2019), vein r of fore wing emitted far behind middle of pterostigma, posteriorly precoxal sulcus comparatively close to pleural sulcus, maxillary palp with 5 segments (as in P. ussuriensis), and vein m-cu of fore wing postfurcal (interstitial in Paradelius, but intermediate in P. ussuriensis).
