Taxonomic Note.
Ball and Bousquet (2000: 108) recognized two groups of genera within this tribe. The eucaerine complex comprising Eucaerus , Aporesthus Bates, Amphitasus Bates, and Asklepia Liebke and the lachnophorine complex encompassing Lachnophorus , Euphorticus , Calybe , Anchonoderus , and Selina . Subsequently to their investigation, three new genera have been proposed: Pseudophorticus Erwin (four species), Guatemalteca Erwin (one species), and Quammenis Erwin (one species).
