Abstract
The thesis on phylogeny and classification of Platerodinae is another contribution to higher level systematic and phylogeny of Lycidae. The first part of the thesis is a taxonomic revision and phylogenetic analysis of the genus-group taxa of Platerodinae itself. The paper deals with interrelationships of its three tribes Lyponiini, Libnetini and Platerodini, as well as with the relatedness of individual genera, and besides includes some species revisions of some small, formerly monotypic genera. The generic revision is followed by two species revisions of the genus Melaneros from China and New Guinea and by another two contributions on Melaneros species from the Himalayas and Sri Lanka.Available from STL, Prague, CZ / NTK - National Technical LibrarySIGLECZCzech Republi
