Staphylus evemerus Godman & Salvin, 1896 is a species with a unique set of morphological characters within Carcharodini. Also, mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (COI) sequences analysis demonstrated a large genetic distance with other related genera of the tribe. Therefore, this paper aims to describe a new genus for this species, which is named as Uniphylus gen. nov. Besides the morphological redescription of the male of Uniphylus evemerus (Godman & Salvin, 1896) new comb., the description of the female is provided for the first time, as well as an updated distributional map with all records known so far for this species.
小眼实蝇属是 Carcharodini 族中具有独特形态特征的一个属。此外，线粒体细胞色素氧化酶亚基 1（COI）序列分析显示，该属与该族的其他相关属种之间存在较大的遗传距离。因此，本文旨在为该物种描述一个新属，命名为小眼实蝇属（Uniphylus gen. nov.）。除了对小眼实蝇属雄虫（Godman & Salvin, 1896）新组合的形态学重新描述外，本文还首次提供了雌虫的描述，并更新了该种迄今为止所有已知记录的分布图谱。
