This article provides information on the genus Erythraeus and its subgenera, specifically focusing on the larval stage. It discusses the subgenus Erythraeus, which is divided into two groups based on the number of basifemoralae, and Erythraeus phalangoides is classified in the first group. The article presents new data on larval specimens of E. phalangoides and transfers Erythraeus walii to the subgenus Erythraeus. It includes measurements and setae counts for E. phalangoides and compares E. walii to other species within the Erythraeus genus. The authors express gratitude to the South Australian Museum for allowing them to study type specimens and provide a list of references for further reading. [Extracted from the article]
