Discussion: Does not include gracilipes ; see Dieterlen and Heim de Balsac (1979) and Demeter and Hutterer (1986). Gureev (1979) listed ibeana , lutreola , and maanjae as distinct species without comment. Does not include virgata ; see under that name. The remaining synonyms are in need of revision. A karyotype from Burundi has 2n = 52, FN = 76 ( Maddalena and Ruedi, 1994).For synonyms see Heim de Balsac and Meester (1977).
