Genus Dilacreon Fennah

Dilacreon (Dilacreon) granulinervis (Muir)

Genus Dilacreon Fennah 1980: 242.
Type species: Dystheatias orpheus Fennah 1956: 78, by original designation.

Known species: 18 species are known of which three species have been recorded from Australia.

Distribution. Indonesia, New Guinea, Oceania (Palau), Australia (Qld, NT)

Notes: Fennah (1980) divided Dilacreon into two subgenera, Dilacreon and Eluzalmon characterised by differences in the lateral margins of the frons and the presence (nominal subgenus) or absence (subgenus Eluzalmon Fennah) of a transverse veinlet from M to Cu1 near Cu fork. The Australian species all belong in the nominal subgenus, which is otherwise distributed in New Guinea, Indonesia and Micronesia (Palau). Species in the subgenus Eluzalmon are only known from New Guinea.
