The tribe is known from nine genera, five of which occur only in Madagascar, the others are Australian: Chloracantha Hebard (C. lampra, C. angularis sp. nov., C. garradunga sp. nov., C. hilleri sp. nov.), Tallebudgeroptera gen. nov. (T. spininota sp. nov.), Mastigaphoides Weidner (M. haffneri, M. tuberculatus sp. nov., M. vaginalis sp. nov., M. lewisensis sp. nov.), Narea Walker (N. compacta, N. elongata, N. kungaree sp. nov.).
