| - The Tarsostenodes complex, a monophyletic group, comprises the genera Blackburniella CHAPIN, Paratillus GORHAM, Tarsostenodes BLACKBURN, and Tarsostenus SPINOLA. Blackburniella includes B. apicula OPITZ, nov.sp. and B. intricata BLACKBURN. The generic name Paratillus is resurrected and includes P. atali, OPITZ, nov.sp. and P. carus (NEWMAN). Tarsostenodes involves T. bullatus OPITZ, nov.sp., T. albonotatus (PIC), T. cribripennis SCHENKLING, T gibbus OPITZ, nov.sp., T. guttulus (WHITE), T. howensis BARTLETT, T. leucogramma ELSTON, T. morulus OPITZ, nov.sp., T. simulator BLACKBURN, T. tentus OPITZ, nov.sp., and T. vesica OPITz, nov.sp. Tarsostenus covers T. antehelvis OPITZ, nov.sp., T. bicolor OPITZ, nov.sp., T. hilaris (WESTWOOD), T. kanak OPITZ, nov.sp., T. tricolor (HELLER), and T. univittatus ROSSI. A Neotype for Tarsostenus univittatus ROSSI is selected. Tarsostenosis HELLER is synonymized with Tarsostenus SPINOLA. Lectotypes are designated for Blackburniella intricata, Paratillus carus, Tarsostenodes albonotatus, T. cribripennis, T. guttulus, T. simulator, and Tarsostenus hilaris. Many of these beetles have been collected from blossoms of hardwoods. The cosmopolitan species Tarsostenus univittatus and Paratillus carus are commonly found in commercial wooden crates in the company of powder-post beetles of the genus Lyctus FABRICIUS. It is postulated that the ancestral stock of the Tarsostenodes complex evolved in mainland Australia, probably during the Middle Cretaceous, some 115 mya. when the sea recessed from that island continent. Moreover, morphological and distributional evidence suggest that the ancestral stock underwent two major evolutionary events that established two major lines of evolution among the Tarsostenodes complex; one involving continental Australia, the other entailing the islands of New Guinea, New Caledonia, and Tasmania. A phylogeny of the species of the Tarsostenodes complex is postulated. It is computer generated with WINCLADA in consort with NONA. This work includes description of species, key to species, 42 line drawings, 6 Scanning Electron Micrographs, 21 color habitus illustrations, 18 color photographs of genitalia, and 5 distributional maps.
