Phylinae

Chlamydatus pullus, copyright AfroBrazilian.

Belongs within: Miridae.

The Phylinae are a group of usually small (2–3 mm) mirids that usually lack a pronotal collar. They possess setiform parempodia and pulvilli arising from the ventral surface of the claw (Carver et al. 1991). Members of the tribes Hallodapini, Pilophorini and some Leucophoropterini are ant mimics (Carver et al. 1991).
