abstract (1292 words)
Grandcolas (1994), based on morphological analysis, synonymized the family Cryptocercidae with Polyphagidae and placed the genus Cryptocercus in the subfamily Polyphaginae.
(1996), and the homologous sequence from representatives of Polyphagidae were used in the analysis.
Polyphagidae is indicated as a sister group to the Blattidae+Cryptocercus complex, suggesting that Polyphagidae may belong to the superfamily Blattoidea rather than to Blaberoidea as proposed by McKittrick (1964).
