Tribes and genera

The Mantodea Species File^[1] now lists just three genera here, effectively in a single tribe:

Mantini

• Mantilia - monotypic Mantilia ehrmanni Roy, 1993
• Mantis (Linnaeus, 1758)
• Statilia (Stal, 1877)

Tribes moved elsewhere

• Archimantini is now in the Hierodulinae
• Paramantini is now in the new subfamily Tenoderinae
• Polyspilotini is now Tenoderini in the Tenoderinae
