Rupisalda Polhemus, 1985 [p. 316]
Distribution: Afrotropical; Madagascan; Nearctic; Neotropical; Oriental; Panamanian; Sino-Japanese.
Remarks: Polhemus originally proposed the name Rupisalda in his 1977 unpublished PhD thesis. Polhemus (1981) used the name Rupisalda in the literature for the first time, but he did not select a type species to validate this genus although two African species (speciosa and thika) were described in it. The text of Polhemus’s 1977 thesis was published unchanged in 1985, validating the name Rupisalda with the selection of the central american R. petricola as type species. Cobben (1987b) remarked that the grouping of African species by Polhemus (1985) in the neotropical genus Rupisalda appeared premature, stating that “the type species of Rupisalda [R. petricola] is not congeneric with the African assemblage” and that he [Cobben] had “some
evidence that the American species included in Rupisalda do not constitute a monophyletic group.” Consequently, Cobben (1987b: 23–24) listed 6 African species (R. africana, R. capicola, R. machadoi, R. speciosa, R. thika, Saldula waltoni) under Saldula Group VI, “leaving the question of generic attribution unsolved.” Polhemus & Polhemus (1992) transferred Saldula thailandana to Rupisalda but did not comment on the generic affiliation of four other species belonging to the Indo-Malayan Saldula fletcheri -group sensu Cobben (1986), namely S. championi Drake, 1954, S. edita Drake & Hoberlandt, 1951, S. fletcheri (Distant, 1909), and S. pusana (Distant, 1909). Vinokurov (2015) described Rupisalda austrosinica which also belongs to the Saldula fletcheri -group and, being of the opinion that this species-group seems to be monophyletic and sits awkwardly in two separate genera, he transferred the entire ‘ S.’ fletcheri species-group to Rupisalda. The monophyly of Rupisalda and the relationships between ‘Neotropical’, ‘Afrotropical’ and ‘Oriental’ species currently placed in this genus, remain to be thoroughly tested.

Remark: Saldula (sensu lato) is a large, nearly worldwide polyphyletic taxon that has often served as a ‘wastebasket genus’ to classify species that could not readily fit elsewhere. Lindskog & Polhemus (1992)
estimated that nearly half of known Saldidae were contained in Saldula and that nearly half of Saldula species could eventually be transferred to other genera. To this date, almost a third of Saldidae species remain in Saldula (sensu lato), most of which remaining to be considered within the monophyletic concept of Saldula (sensu stricto) put forward by Lindskog & Polhemus (1992).
