Scrutiny:
Dolling, 2010, This genus is very close to
Acanthocoris
and the latter may not be holophyletic if these species are excluded from it. Linnavuori (1978) considered that
Petalocnemis pachycerus
was not congeneric with the other species catalogued here and erected for it a new genus,
Chaerommatellus
. As
pachycerus
is the type species of
Petalocnemis
, the two genera are objective synonyms
Type species:
Petalocnemis pachycerus
Stål (=
pachycera
), by original designation
No first use as family-group name is recorded in the database.
