Biology:Microphysidae
From HandWiki
The Microphysidae are a very small family of true bugs, comprising only 5 extant genera.
Systematics
Until recently, many authors considered these bugs to belong within the family Anthocoridae.[citation needed] A 2022 molecular phylogenetics study groups them with Joppeicidae in the proposed clade Microphysoidea.[1] A 2023 study recovers them instead as relatively basal Cimiciformes.[2]
The following genera belong to this family:
Subfamily Microphysinae
- Genus Chinaola Blatchley
- Genus Loricula Curtis (= Microphysa)
- Genus Mallochiola Bergroth
- Genus Myrmedobia Bärensprung
- Genus †Myrmericula Popov
- Genus †Popovophysa McKellar & Engel 2011, Canadian amber, Campanian
- Genus †Tytthophysa Popov & Herczek 2009 Baltic amber, Eocene
Subfamily Ciorullinae
- Genus Ciorulla Péricart
