Tmesorrhina Westwood 1842
Authors/Creators
Description
Genus Tmesorrhina Westwood, 1842
A genus close to Caelorrhina with which shares some characters (see Holm & Marais 1992). According to Holm & Marais (1992) the genus was never revised since Burgeon (1944). Allard (1991) and Antoine (1995, 1996a) provid- ed figures of the parameres for some species. Some taxonomical remarks were added by Antoine (2002a). Krajcik (2008a) and Beinhundner (2017a) recognized fifteen species, but there are some disagreements on the validity of some subspecies. One species and one subspecies were previously recorded for Angola (Quedenfeldt 1884; Burgeon 1944). We give three new species/subspecies records for the Angolan entomofauna in this work.
