        Monobutlerius Andrassy, 1984
  •  
  •     Synonyms:

    Parabutlerius Ebsary, 1986

    Monobutlerius (Andrassy, 2005) Shokoohi, Panahi, Fourie & Abolafia, 2015

    Note: Andrassy (2005) separated species based on the female reproductive systems into Butlerius for didelphic species and erected the genus Monobutlerius spp for monodelphic species . However, based on the similar morphology of their stomas and similarity of DNA profiles, Shokoohi et al (2015) synonymised Butlerius and Monobutlerius and all monodelphic species were transferred to Butlerius.
