  • Comments. Recently, M. nigribasis Kuchta & Savage was described from Costa Rica (referred to as Mesembrina sp. 1 in the cladistic analysis of Nihei and de Carvalho 2007a). The Holarctic Region was probably the ancestral area of this genus, and the Neotropical and Oriental occurrences are due to subsequent expansion of distribution range followed by local speciations.
