Comments.

Diagnostic characters of Pseudowebbia: regular type of pronotum (not extremely prolonged and flat as in Webbia), circular antennal club (not broadened), triangular to broadly rounded protibia (not thin and sickle-like as in Webbia). Elytral declivity deeply excavated, surrounded by highly elevated circumdeclivital costa with no teeth.

Type species of Taphrodasus Wood, 1980. Morphological limits of Taphrodasus never specified. Characters listed by Wood (1980) are either autapomorphic to Taphrodasus percorthylus, or present in other genera, mostly Webbia . Taphrodasus not a valid genus, see below.
