Distribution. Australasian, Nearctic, Neotropical and Palaearctic Regions.
Remarks. The Neotropical genus Panama Marsh, 1993 , which was previously synonymised with Leluthia on the base of morphological characters ( Belokobylskij et al., 2004b), was very recently re-established with generic status on the basis of a molecular-phylogenetic analysis ( de Souza Gadelha et al., 2020).
The genus is here recorded from the Afrotropical Region for the first time.
