Xenotrachea
Sugi
Type species: albidisca
Moore.
This genus was
reviewed by Kishida & Yoshimoto (1979). It consists of small greenish
species with the Euplexia/Phlogophora type of forewing facies. The
trifine basal hair pencils are absent from the male abdomen. The genitalia have
valves with a corona and a strong, usually outcurved, saccular harpe but no
costal process; the ventral margin of the valve is only weakly sclerotised and
has a slightly wrinkled appearance.
