最近研究了许多不同的热带澳大利亚谱系的系统发育，为生物地理分析奠定了基础。作为这项工作的一部分，我们在这里提出了澳大利亚鞘翅目：拟甲科：鞘翅目：拟甲科：鞘翅目)的分支分析。共编码了50个分类群的101个形态特征。研究结果表明，澳大利亚腔猫属由几个分支组成，大部分来自澳大利亚高海拔雨林的无飞行物种形成一个单一的单系类群。女性生殖管和产卵器的特征在确定部落内的亲密关系方面特别有用。近年来，Coelometopini被重新定义，我们综合和总结了该群体的生物学和生态学，并考虑到最新的限制。
The phylogeny of a number of diverse, tropical Australian lineages has been studied recently to lay the groundwork for biogeographic analyses. As part of this effort, we present here a cladistic analysis of the Australasian Coelometopini (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae: Coelometopinae). A total of 101 morphological characters were coded for 50 taxa. Results show that the Australasian Coelometopini comprises several well-supported clades and that the majority of flightless species from Australian high elevation rainforests form a single monophyletic group. Features of the female genital tube and ovipositor were especially useful in determining close relationship within the tribe. The Coelometopini has been redefined over recent years, and we synthesize and summarize the biology and ecology of the group taking into account the most current circumscription.
