Belongs within: Elipsocidae.
Hemineura is a genus of barklice found in the western Palaearctic, suggested by phylogenetic analysis to be paraphyletic to the more widespread genus Elipsocus (Schmidt & New 2004). Species assigned to Hemineura have antennae much longer than the length of the body whereas those of Elipsocus are relatively shorter (Lienhard 1998).
Characters (from Schmidt & New 2004, for Elipsocus + Hemineura): Antenna with thirteen segments, two placoid sensilla at apex of flagellomere 10, three at base of flagellomere 1; lacinia truncate; setae on fore wing posterior margin emerging from centre of costa; marginal wing scales triangular, not equilateral, with distal apices sharply pointed; hind wing vein Cu1 meeting posterior margin at acute angle; tarsi three-segmented; abdomen ovoid, abdominal vesicles absent; sides of phallosome frame parallel; dorsal gonapophysis valve spine reduced on mesial margin of lobe, valve apically broadening from base, ventral valve normal; subgenital plate anterior diverging arms of uniform width or apically wide.
