TIMANDROMORPHINI

Inoue (1961) erected Timandromorphini based on a single genus, Timandromorpha Inoue. The diagnostic characters were summarized in Inoue (1961), Hausmann (1996), Holloway (1996) and Han & Xue (2011a). Holloway (1996) stated that the Timandromorphini share a modified eighth segment of the male abdomen with the Aracimini and referred to the fact that the ovipositor lobes of the female genitalia are intermediate between the typical type of Geometrinae (oblique and papillate) and the modified type of Geometrini (more sclerotized, smoother and slenderer). Although in Sihvonen et al. (2011), Timandromorpha is a sister to Aracimini , in this study, Timandromorphini is the sister-group to Geometrini , indicating a close relationship to the latter.
