Redescription of the African genus Poecilomorpha Hope, 1814 (Megalopodidae: Megalopodinae) and description of a new species

Three species of the genus Poecilomorpha Hope, 1841, P. passerinii Hope, 1841 (type species), P. minuta (Pic, 1951) and P. cribricollis (Pic, 1951) are redescribed, and a new species P. pseudocribricollis sp. nov. is described. Illustrations of the habitus, aedeagus and spermatheca of all four taxa are provided. The following new combinations are proposed: Leucastea apicalis (Pic, 1951), L. atricornis (Pic, 1951), L. curta (Pic, 1951), L. fasciaticeps (Pic, 1951), L. immaculatipes (Pic, 1951), L. impressipennis (Pic, 1951), L. laticornis (Pic, 1951), L. nigroapicalis (Pic, 1951), L. nigromaculata (Pic, 1951), L. overlaeti (Pic, 1951), L. testaceipennis (Pic, 1917), L. trimaculata (Pic, 1951), L. usambarica (Weise, 1902), Sphondylia diversipes (Pic, 1951), S. trilineata (Erber & Medvedev, 2002), S. gravastella (Péringuey 1908), Macrolopha aurovillosa (Jacoby, 1894) and Monrosolopha tarsata (Bryant, 1941). Poecilomorpha abyssinica Pic, 1951 and P. delaguensis Pic, 1913 are proposed as new synonyms of Sphondylia afer (Klug, 1824). A list of the species of the genus Poecilomorpha is also included.
