TABLE 1 in The ' Pylus complex' sensu Opitz revisited (Coleoptera: Cleridae: Korynetinae): non-homogeneity of its genera addressed by alternative species-assignment hypothesis

TABLE 1. Species of Opitz’ Pylus -complex arranged according to the newly proposed genus assignment (third column), with supporting suite of correlating character states to the right, and Opitz’ (2015) tibial spur-based classification to the left. Character states were confirmed by specimen examination except for Fallopylus astrictus and Apopylus cruslumus (indicated by *) with character states gleamed from Opitz (2015).
