摘要
The taxonomic status and relationships of the genera Askoldia, Pholidapus, and Opisthocentrus in the subfamily Opisthocentrinae are discussed on the basis of results from comparative morphological and molecular genetic analyses. This study suggests the isolation of the genus Pholidapus from the genus Opisthocentrus and a greater similarity of the former genus to Askoldia. The level of morphological and genetic differences does not allow considering Pholidapus as a member of the genus Opisthocentrus. Within the genus Opisthocentrus, O. ocellatus and O. tenuis are closer to each other, while O. zonope differs significantly from the two species.
