Protheristria Makarkin, Nielsen & Perkovsky, 2025, gen. nov.
Genus Protheristria gen. nov. Type and only species. Protheristria roldae sp. nov. Diagnosis. May be easily distinguished from other genera of Drepanicinae by a combination of following venation character states: Both fore- hind wings: one gradate series of crossveins in the radial to intramedial spaces [two series in Liassochrysa, Promantispa, Ditaxis, Allomantispa]; pterostigma pale [dark in Theristria]; Sc distally (bordering the pterostigma) very pale, poorly discernible [well discernible in other genera]; all branches of RP forked once [at least some branches dichotomously forked in other genera except for a few species of Theristria]. Etymology. From the Greek pro, before, and Theristria, a genus-group name. Gender feminine.
