Podabrocephalus is an enigmatic monotypic genus in the family Ptilodactylidae. For decades it had historically been placed in its own family, Podabrocephalidae,[1] or sometimes included in the highly diverse family Cerambycidae,[2][3] but more recent analyses firmly place it within Ptilodactylidae.[4] Its only species is Podabrocephalus sinuaticollis, known from southern India.[2]
