Abstract

Recent changes in the classification of the family Caliscelidae Amyot et Serville are summarized. All the genera are attributed to tribes and subfamilies. Data on the distribution and the number of genera and species for each tribe are presented. The subfamily Ommatidiotinae is shown to be absent in the recent New World fauna, and only the tribe Peltonotellini represents the subfamily Caliscelinae in the Nearctic and Neotropical regions.
