Wadeura Weber 1939 Revived Status

Type species: Wadeura guianensis Weber, 1939:103; by original designation.

See discussion of morphology under Cryptopone. Wadeura now contains four species: W. guianensis, W. holmgreni, W. holmgrenita sp. nov., and W. pauli. Phylogenetic information is available for three of the four known species, with W. pauli being sister to W. holmgrenita and W. guianensis.
