Petascelini

The Petascelini[1] are a tribe of leaf-footed bugs, in the subfamily Coreinae erected (as "Petascelaria") by Carl Stål in 1873. Many genera are from tropical Africa including the type genus Petascelis, but some are from South-East Asia.[2] Ahmad gives key to the tribes of Coreinae including these genera.[3]
