Abstract

A review of the material captured by Th. Wagner in Uganda yielded two new species of the genus Rhamna Peyerimhoff, 1913, R. yelamosi sp. n. and R. vivesi sp. n., together with other new species of the genus Mesocoelopus Jaquelin du Val, 1860, which will be dealt with in a separate paper on that genus. Both species are well characterised by the conformation of the antennae, maxillary palpi and aedeagus, the first being provided with genital armour and the second not. The evolution of the genus is discussed, as well as its curious distribution, in two geographically very separate groups, sure due to the methodology used in the collection of specimens. The specific key for the genus and a catalogue of the species of the genus.
