The taxonomic history and biology of Epipocinae (= Stenotarsinae) is briefly reviewed. The first larval descriptions are provided for four epipocine genera: Anidrytus Gerstaecker, Epipocus Germar, Periptyctus Blackburn and Stenotarsus Perty. For each genas, a dorsal habitus drawing is presented and important morphological structures are illustrated with scanning electron micrographs. The larvai morphologies of Saula Gerstaecker and the presumed larvae of Ephebus Gerstaecker are also discussed. A key to identify larvae of all six genera is provided. Characters of potential phylogenetic importance and their implications for the classification of Epipocinae are briefly discussed.
