margins along a short or a longer section. Anterior margin of external paramere of male genitalia strongly constricted or normal. Distribution everywhere except the American continent Chelisochinae BURR. 1907 Genitalatinae subfam. n. Totally apterous; moderately large and slender species. Antennae multisegmented, about 36-jointed; third antennái joint long, slender and nearly as long as joints 4-6 combined. Pronotum narrower than head, slightly widened posteriorly. Legs long and slender, first tarsal segment longer than the 2nd and 3rd combined; second produced into a small lobe below the 3rd. Abdomen slender, elongated, and parallel-sided. Ultimate tergite short and transverse. Pygidium very small. Forceps contiguous, long and slender. Penultimate sternite ample, and broadly rounded. Male genitalia very characteristic, undeveloped; central parameral plate broad, genital lobe present, but very simple, with a narrow median incision; distal lobe without virga. External parameres broad and elongated, nearly of equal width throughout, apex slightly narrowed towards inner margin. Type-genus : Genitalata KAPOOR, 1974 Species: mahajani KAPOOR, 1974 (India: Himahal Pradesh). Chelisochellinae STEINMANN, 1975 Lateral margins of tegmina with a ridge-like keel, sometimes not extending along entire segment. Tegmina dilated, broad and ample or square, truncate. Postfrontal and coronal sutures deep, well marked or feeble. Male forceps more or less well developed, broader or narrower basally, inner margins with smaller or larger tooth or teeth. Male genitalia of Chelisoches-type, with a very long virga, and base of virga with two sclerotized sacs. Type-genus : Chelisochella VERHOEFF, 1902. IDENTIFICATION KEY TO THE GENERA 1 (2) Body length usually over 12 mm. Tegmina dilated, broad and ample. Antennái joints 4 and 5 equally long, together longer than third. Head tumid, postfrontal and coronal sutures deep, well marked. Tegmina powerful, wings long and prominent. — Type-species : Lobopkora superba DOHRN, 1865. Species : doriae (BORMANS, 1900) (Sikkim, and Borneo), superba (DOHRN, 1865) (Oriental Region) Chelisochella VERHOEFF, 1902 2 (1) Body length not more than 12 mm. Tegmina square, truncate, short; wings abortive. Antennae with third joint relatively short; fourth cylindrical, a little shorter; fifth about equal to third. Head smooth, postfrontal and coronal sutures feeble. •—T ypespecies : Chelisoches punctulata BURR, 1897. Species : mounseyi BURR, 1916 (Philippine Islands: Mindanao),punctulata (BURR, 1897) (Celebes), significans STEINMANN in print (Sulawesi), werneri SRIVASTAVA, 1878 (Philippine Islands : Mindanao) Kinesis BURR, 1907 Chelisochinae BURR, 1907 Lateral margins of tegmina without a ridge-like edge. Tegmina short, posterior margins obliquely truncate, and wings absent, or tegmina well, sometimes fully developed, and wings present. Head normally developed, postfrontal and coronal sutures well marked or indistinct. Tibiae not obviously
