In preparation for upcoming studies, several new taxa of Australian Erotylinae (Coleoptera: Erotylidae) need to be described to make names available. New genera and species in Dacnini and Megalodacnini are described. Echinothallis banderbearella, new genus and species (Dacnini); Microdacne, new genus, with four new species (Dacnini), M. gloriousa, M. lamingtonia, M. nardia, M. styxia; and Episcaphula (Tropidoscaphula) megalodacnoides, new species (Megalodacnini). Variation of female terminalia and other characters in several genera are discussed regarding the monophyly and generic diversity of Dacnini.
为了即将开展的研究，需要描述几种澳大利亚 Erotylinae（鞘翅目：Erotylidae）的新分类单元，以提供可用的名称。描述了 Dacnini 和 Megalodacnini 中的新属和新种。Echinothallis banderbearella，新属新种（Dacnini）；Microdacne，新属，有四个新种（Dacnini），M. gloriousa、M. lamingtonia、M. nardia、M. styxia；以及 Episcaphula（Tropidoscaphula）megalodacnoides，新种（Megalodacnini）。讨论了几个属的雌性末端结构和其他特征的变异，以确定 Dacnini 的单系性和属多样性。
