Abstract

A generic revision of the insect order Phasmatodea: The New World genera of the stick\ninsect subfamily Diapheromerinae (Diapheromeridae) = Heteronemiinae (Heteronemiidae) sensu\nBradley & Galil, 1977.\nThe North and South American genera of the phasmatodean subfamily Diapheromerinae =\nHeteronemiinae sensu Bradley & Galil are revised. All genera are redescribed, type species are\nmentioned or designated, and synonyms listed. Two new tribes, Ocnophilini and Oreophoetini, are\nestablished, and the Libethrini are synonymized with Diapheromerini. Genitalia, eggs and important\nother characters of most genera are figured.\nTen new genera are introduced and five new species are described. Previously unknown males, females\nand eggs of several species are described. The genera are arranged in groups, with separate keys to all\ntribes and generic-level groups, including males, females, and eggs to the extent currently known
