Abstract

Because of the apparent economic importance of the group, it is essential to understand the taxonomic relationships within the genus. As stated above, this understanding has not previously been accomplished. Therefore, I considered that the subsection Pusilli was in need of thorough revision. It is understood that problems still exist within the Pusilli, but it is hoped this re-evaluation will clarify some of the confusion within the group.
