Subfamily Doratomantispinae Lu et al., 2020

Revised diagnosis Vertex posteriorly with two lateral tubercles. Pronotum tubular, with paratergal lobes ventrally fused; maculae absent; postfurcasternum very small. Profemur distinctly shorter than protibia plus protarsi, not compressed along ISs row (without posteroventral carina), distinctly broadened near base, ventrally with two ISs rows: ISs stout, saber-shaped, rarely spine-shaped; anteroventral row consisting of a major process with two, four, or five basal branches each distally bearing a conical Stitz organ, and several short processes along distal 1/3–3/4 length of profemur; posteroventral row with 3–18 processes, commencing slightly distal to level of major process. Protibia ventrally with a row of flattened (Type j6, j9) or angularly curved (near Type k4) prostrate setae on well-developed and thickened keel; protarsus 5-segmented, tarsomere 1 not prolonged and not distally spinously produced, tarsomere 1–4 ventrally bearing conical setae (Type k3); two simple pretarsal claws; arolium small, subtriangular, acutely tapering. Wing trichosors present almost along entire wing margin, mostly with just one between adjacent veinlets;

ScP distally abruptly bending towards and fused with RA, pterostigma present between C and ScP + RA, one or two series of gradates (inner gradates incomplete) present; forewing CuP not approximating A1 proximally; hind wing 1rp-m upright, CuP reduced with stem weak or absent. Male gonocoxites 9 short or long, slender, or broad, distally simple or bifurcated; gonapophyses 10 long, slender, or broad, distally acute; gonostyli 10 (pseudopenis) whip-shaped, short to very long, basally enlarged and thickened. Female tergum 9 not fused with ectoprocts; pseudohypocaudae absent; gonocoxites 9 short, not elongate into a long ovipositor.
