Polystalactica Kraatz 1882

Description

Genus Polystalactica Kraatz, 1882

There are three subgenera recognized in the genus, including the nominal one (Beinhundner 2017a). A synopsis of the African species was done by Beinhundner (2001). Holm &Marais (1992) and later Antoine (2002b) revised the subgenus Leptothyrea Kraatz, 1882. Antoine (2010) relegated the genus Trichocelis Moser, 1908 to the level of subgenus of Polystalactica. Later, Rojkoff (2016b) reviewed this subgenus. There are two species recorded previously for Angola, all in the nominal subgenus (Beinhundner 2017a). A new species record in the subgenus Trichocelis is reported to the Angolan entomofauna in this work.
