Recently discovered new genera and previously unknown larvae of several groups have provided new information on the phylogeny of the family Corylophidae. The paper discusses the results of a cladistic analysis based on morphology of adult and immature stages, representing all major groups of Corylophidae and outgroup exemplars from the families Coccinellidae, Discolomatidae, Latridiidae and Erotylidae. Based on these results, a new supergeneric classification is proposed and compared with those in other recent works on Corylophidae and related groups.
