Spargoptilon Kukalová, 1965 .

— Kukalová (1965) described two species S. latericius Kukalová, 1965 (type species) and S. confertus Kukalová, 1965 in this genus. The main difference with Homocladus is the distinctly less numerous branches of RP (five main in Spargoptilon contra ca. 10 in Homocladus ), and the ScP ending on costal margin instead on RA in Homocladus . Rasnitsyn and Aristov (2004: 160) proposed a synonymy of Homocladus with Spargoptilon , considering that the main difference between the two would be the narrower wing of Homocladus . The differences indicated above are sufficient for a generic separation, thus we restore Homocladus as a different genus status restored.
