    Chace & Bruce (1993) remarked that the genus differs little from some pontoniines, separated only by seemingly minor adult morphological characters, but as pointed out by Chace (1992) and Chace & Bruce (1993), the larvae, described by Gurney (1936) and Gurney (1938) differ sufficiently to support a separate family.
