Abstract
Based on independent studies of immature stages and adults of Athripsodes, sens. lat. (Leptocerus auctt. nee Leach, 1815), two distinct genera are recognized, Athripsodes Billberg, 1820, and Ceraclea Stephens, 1829, which together comprise a new tribe. Characters are given to distinguish the two genera in the larval, pupal and adult stages. Data are presented which support monophyletic hypotheses for the tribe and for each of the two genera.
This study was supported by a grant for improving doctoral dissertation research in systematics from the National Science Foundation, by a grant-in-aid of research from Sigma Xi, The Scientific Research Society of North America, and by a special research grant from the National Environment Research Council of Great Britain.
