The Phylinae are a subfamily of the soft bugs (Miridae) from the suborder Cimicomorpha . About 300 genera are known. There are around 450 species in Europe. The subfamily is distributed worldwide, but has the focus of their distribution in the temperate latitudes. Very few species occur in the Neotropic .

features

The subfamily is defined by the following autapomorphies : The collar on the pronotum is curved upwards ( flattened in the Hallodapini ), the Parempodia are bristle-shaped (with the exception of the Pilophorini ), the Pulvilli are fleshy, the claws are basal or apical not toothed, a phallotheca is attached to the pygophore , the endosoma is rigid and belt-shaped (usually S-shaped), and the posterior wall of the female genitalia is simply built (with the exception of some Australian taxa).

Taxonomy and systematics

According to Schuh & Slater (1995), the subfamily comprised five tribes. Wyninger recognized the Tribus Pronotocrepini Knight 1929 as valid again in 2010, after Carvalho in 1952 put the only genus that Knight had made a tribe, Pronotocrepis , to the tribe Phylini. According to Wyninger, the tribe includes two genera that were formerly part of the Phylini ( Ethelastia and Pronotocrepis ) and two genera of the Hallodapini ( Orectoderus and Teleorhinus ).

The Phylinae thus comprise the following six tribes:

The following tribes and species occur in Europe:
