Remarks
- Systematics: According to Gonzalez, 2008, this genus is similar to Spiroporococcus Miller because other genera have a concentration of loculate pores near the opening of the spiracles and both occur on grasses. Spiroporococcus differs in having 3 pairs of poorly developed anal ring setae (5 pairs of conspicuous setae on Poliloculus), loculate pores with primarily 5 loculi (5-9 on Poliloculus), and 7 segmented antennae (6 in Poliloculus). Other important characters of Poliloculus are 1) dorsal setae very sparse; 2) anal lobes small; 3) median plate present; and 4) macrotubular and microtubular ducts present on both surfaces.
