However, Fennah (1977) considered Myrilla as a subgenus of Birdantis, separating them on characters of the vertex, i.e., anterior margin of vertex straight, without deep transverse sulcus behind it in Myrilla; anterior margin of vertex concave, with a deep transverse sulcus behind it in Birdantis s. str. It is therefore currently formally divided into two subgenera: Birdantis (ten species and one subspecies) and Myrilla (two species) (Fennah 1977; Nagai &amp; Porion 1996). The genus is externally close to the Oriental Polydictya Guérin-Méneville, 1844 and Gebenna Stål, 1863, and the Australian Desudaboides Musgrave, 1927 (Lallemand 1963; Nagai &amp; Porion 1996; Constant 2010, 2011). Nagai &amp; Porion (1996) followed the classification in Fennah (1977), but in my paper on the species of Birdantis from Australia (Constant 2011), I questioned the value of the subgenera as defined by Fennah (1977), because intermediate species exist, and followed the views of Lallemand (1959) but without formally reinstating the synonymy between Birdantis and Myrilla . Accordingly, three species remained without subgeneric affiliation (Bourgoin 2018) within the last formally accepted classification of Fennah (1977).</p><p>The genus Birdantis is currently placed in the Poiocerina Haupt, 1929 of the Poiocerini Haupt, 1929, in the subfamily Poiocerinae Haupt, 1929 (Lallemand 1963; Constant 2011; Bourgoin 2018). However, Urban &amp; Cryan (2009) have shown, based on molecular data, that Fulgoridae can be separated into two main clades, one grouping all New World taxa with strong support, the other containing all Old World taxa. Hence, as the type genus of the Poiocerinae is the Neotropical genus Poiocera Laporte, 1832, the suprageneric placement of Birdantis needs to be reconsidered.</p><p>The classifications proposed by Metcalf (1947), Lallemand (1963) and Nagai &amp; Porion (1996) were based on a very small number of characters of the head, especially the presence/absence and shape of the cephalic process. The genus Birdantis is here transferred to the subfamily Aphaeninae, following the conclusions of the DNA study by Urban &amp; Cryan (2009), which place the genus close to Desudaba Walker, 1858 . However, the latter study did not contain any species of the genera Polydictya, Gebenna or Desudaboides, which are putatively considered closely related to Birdantis based on morphological characters. Hence, an accurate tribal placement requires a complete study of the suprageneric relations between the genera of Aphaeninae with the inclusion of more Old World taxa in the molecular analysis and the integration of morphological data (Urban &amp; Cryan 2009).</p><p>Species included</p><p>Birdantis bernhardi Lallemand, 1959 – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis bhaskarai sp. nov. – Larat Island</p><p>Birdantis bloetei Lallemand, 1959 – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis collaris (Walker, 1870) – Morotai Island</p><p>Birdantis decens Stål, 1863 – Aru Island</p><p>Birdantis delibuta Stål, 1863 – Ternate Island</p><p>Birdantis dorsinigra Lallemand, 1959 – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis enyo Fennah, 1977 – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis goemansi Constant, 2011 – Australia (N Queensland)</p><p>Birdantis hesperugo Fennah, 1977 – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis lineatifrons (Schmidt, 1907) – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis mouldsi Constant, 2011 – Australia (N Queensland)</p><p>Birdantis obscura (Distant, 1888) – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis papuana (Distant, 1906) – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis semihyalina (Distant, 1906) – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis similis (Schmidt, 1911) – New Guinea</p><p>Birdantis trilineata (Schmidt, 1926) – Ambon, Boano, Buru and Seram Islands</p><p>Birdantis virginiae Constant, 2011 – Australia (N Queensland)</p><p>Identification key to the species of Birdantis of the Maluku Archipelago</p><p>1.
