Tribe Clavigerini Leach, 1815

All Clavigeritae of Madagascar are currently assigned to the tribe Clavigerini as newly defined by Hlaváč et al. (2021). There are apparently four genera in this tribe which resemble each other and are easily separated from others. Ambrosiger Silvestri, 1926 (from Macao, China), Apoderiger, Micrapoderiger and Trymalius (all three from Madagascar) are all originally placed in the tribe Apoderigerini (Newton & Chandler, 1989) . All these genera share a smooth surface of the forebody, trimerous antennae with the terminal antennomere very long and dilated distad to form a distal club, and the composite tergite lacking trichomes. Ambrosiger, Micrapoderiger and Trymalius are monogeneric and Apoderiger after this revision contains six species.
