Subfamily Cladonotinae Bolívar, 1887

Representatives in India and Sri Lanka. India and Sri Lanka are inhabited by representatives of 7 genera belonging to two tribes ( Xerophyllini and Cladonotini ), altogether 13 species.

Notes. Following Storozhenko & Paik’s (2011) division of the subfamily into two tribes, Cladonotini and Xerophyllini , species and genera of India and Sri Lanka are attributed to those two tribes. Cladonotini members have a convex vertex, with its middle part being the highest, with no fastigial horns, while Xerophyllini members have a concave, depressed vertex with high fastigial horns.
