Type species: Tautoneura tricolor Anufriev, 1969, by original designation.
Description. Body small and slim, color milky to pale yellow. Head narrower or about equal to pronotum in width. Crown with anterior margin angulate or slightly rounded, produced medially; coronal suture distinct, but usually not extended to vertex. Face flat or convex in profile, anteclypeus and lorum long and slim. Forewing usually with spots or patterns, AA and AP vein not visible. Hind wing with RA vein usually present, submarginal vein (av) developed.
Abdominal apodemes developed, extended to sternite IV–Ⅴ, or not exceeding sternite III in few species. Anal tube with or without developed appendage.
Pygofer with dorsal appendage articulated to pygofer side; most species with ventral appendage. Pygofer with macrosetae at cephalo-ventral angle of lobe and several microsetae scattered on inner side of posterior margin. Subgenital plate broadened subbasally, with row of microsetae along outer margin, basal setae larger and forming a group, 3–4 macrosetae in different lengths near middle and several microsetae scattered on apical part. Style with apex varies among species, preapical lobe distinct. Connective Y-shaped, with manubrium and central lobe present. Aedeagal shaft usually tubular, with or without process, processes symmetrical or not, gonopore subapical to apical on ventral surface, preatrium developed with processes in a few species.
Distribution. Palaearctic, Oriental regions.
