Remarks

Schintlmeister (2008) placed the genus Teleclita<>/i in the subfamily Dicranurinae which was contradicted by Kobayashi & Nonaka (2016) and placed the genus under two subfamilies viz. Periergosinae and Notodontinae : Dicranurini, as it is not monophyletic in the aspect of molecular analysis. Miller (1991) established the tribe Dicranurini under the subfamily Notodontinae which ratifies with the analysis of Kobayashi & Nonaka (2016). Hence, to resolve this confusion, we treated Teleclita under the subfamily Notodontinae.
