meres; on anterio-median margin of paramere;if present, its depth not reaching half length of paramere. - Typegenus: Pygidicrana SERVILLE, 1831 Pygidicraninae BURR, 1909 33 (34) Pronotum essentially longer than wide;plate usually not quadratic. Cerci symmetrical. Male metaparamere conspicuously and deeply cleft

,dividing plate of metaparamere into two narrow teeth,outer one situated parallel with, inner one rectangularly to

,longitudinal axe of paramere (Pig. 25).African and Australian species. - Type-species: wellmani BURR, 1907 Dac

nodes BURR, 1907 34 (33) Pronotum not longer than wide, thus plate quadratic. Cerci often asymmetrical.Male metaparameres not incised, whole dentiform; if somewhat emarg

,their construction not as in Dacnodes BURR species. 35 (36) Tarsal joints short, swollen, thick, pulvilli sometimes discernible on joints same 2. American species. Typical male penis shown in Pig. 26. - Type-species: v-nigrum SERVILLE, 1831 Pygidicrana SERVILLE, I83I 36 (35) Tarsal joints longer,not swollen. Hot American species. 37 (38) Tarsal joint 2 lobately widened. Male paramere short as compared to length of metaparameres;metaparamere

s long, about as long as half length of paramere (Pig. 27). Type-species: grandiventris (BLANCHARD), 1853 Tagalina DOHRN, 1863 38 (37) Tarsal joint 2 not lobately widened. Male paramere longer or shorter, but length of metaparamere always shorter than half length of paramere (the species of the genus show divergent evolutional lines; penis of the more important types shown in Pigs. 28-37), - Most species of Oriental, some of Indo-Australian distribution; one species: C.semenovi BURR, 1912, Palaearctic (AmuDarja). - Type-species: cum
