Pronotum with median groove present; pronotal lobes thick; paranota absent (except Prasia); pronotal collar with lateral margin confluent with adjoining lateral lobes [as pronotal sclerites in Moulds (2005)]; lateral angle of pronotal collar round. Mesonotum with scutellum cruciform with lateral area obtuse; operculum small, covering at least half of the tympanal cavity. Metanotum expanded. Forewing veins C and R +Sc close together (Moulds, 2005); expansion (shelf-like) of vein C present; vein RA aligned closely with subcosta (Sc) for its length (Moulds, 2005); apical area of forewings not reticulated; apical cells in number of eight; subapical cells absent; marginal area absent. Hindwing with anal lobe either broad or narrow and vein 3A either separated or adjacent to wing margin (Moulds, 2005). Male abdominal tergites with sides straight or convex in cross-section (Moulds, 2005); tergites 2 and 3 similar in size to tergites 4–7 (Moulds, 2005); tergite 2 short, reaching the base of timbal; timbals extend below wing bases (Moulds, 2005). Uncus present. Clasper present (except in Arfaka) and distally directed. Pygofer with upper lobe present, thickened rather than flat (Moulds, 2005), longer than or the same length as anal styles; pygofer secondary upper lobe absent; pygofer basal lobe ill-defined (except in Arfaka); dorsal beak present. Aedeagus lateral crest absent. Theca straight or curved in a gentle arc (Moulds, 2005) with apex bilobed; pseudoparameres present in some species.</p> <p>Distinguishing characters: Scape long, twice the size of pedicel; vertex narrow; ocelli closely spaced; postclypeus keel-shaped in frontal view; clasper and uncus present together, the uncus poorly developed and the claspers, located below, distally developed. The long scape and the keel-shaped postclypeus are proposed for the first time as diagnostic of Prasiini.</p> <p>Remarks: Some of the characters proposed by Boer (1995a), such as a large obconical and triangularly protruding postclypeus, a very narrow hyaline border along the hind margin of the wing, and well-developed and posteriorly-projecting protuberances on the lateral lobes of the male pygofer (used here as characters 7, 8, 40 and 52), cannot be used as diagnostic for Prasiini because they are also present in species of Hemidictyini and Chlorocystini.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B937B004A100FE124B86FC1BFBD47D86	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
