Currently in incertae sedis, Petrocerus Callaghan, 1979 (type species Calydna catiena Hewitson, 1875 ) is a confident sister to Pseudotinea Hall & Callaghan, 2003 (type species Calydna volcanicus Callaghan & Salazar, 1997 ) (Fig. 28). Together they are sister to the clade with Theope Doubleday, 1847 (type species Polyommatus terambus Godart, [1824] ), and therefore, Petrocerus belongs to Theopina Clench, 1955.
