Overview
Wallace and Deitz (2004a) gave a revised definition and description of the tribe Terentiini, which makes up nearly the entire native treehopper fauna of Australia, but includes also genera elsewhere in the Australian, Indomalayan and Palearctic regions. More recently, Wallace and Deitz (2006a) presented a phylogenetic analysis of the tribe with a discussion of its biogeography and host plant associations. Evangelista (2021) added a new genus, Wallaciana, to the tribe.

Diagnostic characters
Pronotum with or without suprahumeral horns (in some, these present at apex of median anterior horn); median anterior horn present in Bulbauchenia, Eutryonia, Funkhouserella, and Pyrgonota, posterior process straight at base, appressed against scutellum and usually concealing it (exceptions: scutellum visible in Bulbauchenia, Wallaciana, and some Sextius), significantly extending past m-cu3 crossvein of forewing (exception: not surpassing m-cu3 in Pyrgonota). Scutellum short (with abdomen removed, at most acute scutellar apices visible). Male style clasp laterally oriented, thickened dorsally, membranous ventrally, usually quadrate (acuminate apically in Bulbauchenia and Pyrgonota), angled ventrally; style shank broadened ventrally before midpoint and arched just beyond.
