"New evidence is presented to support transfer of the generra Nanobius, Asemobius, and Zalobius from the Piestinae to Pseudopsinae, currently including only Pseudopsis. The subfamily is redescribed, a key to genera given, and the natural history and distribution briefly reviewed. A revised cladistic analysis of the four genera is presented with the conclusion that Pseudopsis is the sister group of the remaining genera. The relationships of the subfamily are discussed; a close relationship to the Phloeocharinae rather than to the Oxytelinae is suggested"--P. [1].
