Subtribe Apenina Ball, 1983 View in CoL
Apenina Ball, 1983: 516. Type genus: Apenes LeConte, 1851.
Diversity.
About 115 species (Lorenz 2005: 464-465) in the Nearctic (eight species of Apenes ), Neotropical (72 species of Apenes ), Australian (one species in New Guinea), Oriental (nine species), Palaearctic (22 species), and Afrotropical (14 species) Regions. These species are arrayed in five genera: Apenes (75 species), Habutarus Ball and Hilchie (one species from New Guinea), Cymindoidea Laporte (15 species), Platytarus Fairmaire (12 species), and Trymosternus Chaudoir (13 species from the Iberian Peninsula and northern Africa).
Taxonomic Note.
1. The family-group names Platytarini and Trymosternini were proposed by Zaballos and Jeanne (1994: 116) and recorded as synonyms of Apenina by Lorenz (2005: 464). However, both names are unavailable since they were not accompanied by a description or a reference to a published description (ICZN 1999: Article 13.1). 2. Apenina came out as the sister-group to the remaining lebiine subtribes, with the exclusion of sugimotoinines, actenocynines, and pericalines, in Ball et al. (1995) and Casale (1998: Fig. 91) cladistic analyses.
