Typhloiulus (?) uncinifer based on a juvenile collected on Cephalonia Island in Greece. As the question mark indicates, the assignment of this species to Typhloiulus is tentative - judged from the original description,trhe only indication in this direction is the lack of eyes. Ten years later, another julid with a hook on the subanal scale, Syrioiulus andreevi Mauries, 1984 was described (Mauries 1984), and now we add Titanophyllum spiliarum to the group possessing this peculiar character. We suspect that Typhloiulus (?) uncinifer, rather than belonging to the tribe Typhloiulini, may be related to T. spiliarum. Even if this is not
true, we now have hook-bearing species belonging to at least three tribes : Oncoiulini (Unciger), Pachyiulini (Syrioiulus), and Brachyiulini (Titanophyllum).
