Typophorini Explained

Typophorini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 100 genera, which are found worldwide. Members of the tribe are mainly characterized by notches on the tibiae of the middle and hind legs, which are sometimes referred to as antenna cleaners. They also generally have a subglabrous body, as well as bifid pretarsal claws.[1] [2]

Taxonomy

Following the leaf beetle classification of Seeno and Wilcox (1982), the genera of Typophorini are largely divided into five informal groups or "sections": Callisinites, Metachromites, Nodostomites, Pagriites and Typophorites, with some genera having incertae sedis placement within the tribe.[3]

In the Catalog of the leaf beetles of America North of Mexico, published in 2003, the section Scelodontites of Bromiini was transferred to Typophorini.
