The subfamily Aphaeninae is a group of hemipteran insects, especially abundant and diverse in the tropics, in the family Fulgoridae, or "lanternflies".
The future of the Aphaeninae as a subfamily is unclear since the taxa assigned to it do not form a monophyletic group in recent molecular analyses. [1] [2] The tribe Enchophorini, previously placed here, has been raised to a subfamily.
Tribes and genera
Recent research has resulted in the reclassification of the former tribe Enchophorini to a separate subfamily (e.g. [3]), while the tribe Pyropsini is now included here (e.g., [4] [5] [6]).
