Abstract

The genus Elsiella Froeschner, 1981 is validated based on the analysis of a recently found male specimen of E. plana (Walker, 1867). A cladistic analysis comprising a data set of 40 morphological characters and 22 taxa, including the genera Elsiella, Serdia St?l, Similliserdia Fortes & Grazia, Neotibilis Grazia & Barcellos, and Tibilis St?l, was performed. Elsiella plana is redescribed and illustrated. Maps are provided for Elsiella and Serdia with biogeographical considerations for Serdia.
