The species richness of the variouscountries and the perspectives for further research are discussed.For each African country all the known species are listed, togetherwith the number of endemisms. Author, year, publication, synonyms,size, type locality, abundance, remarks, and distribution are given forevery taxon.The label data of all the illustrated specimens are cited,as well as the acronym of the collection where the specimen is held.Many of the type specimens from the most important entomologicalmuseums (Berlin, Pretoria, Eberswalde, London, Paris, Cape Town,Munich, Dresden, Tervuren, Vienna, Florence, Genova and Basel)are illustrated.
