Meganola odontographa Hacker, 2012

Meganola odontographa Hacker, 2012, Esperiana 17: 427. Type locality: [Burkina Faso] Comoe. Holotype, ♀ (ZSM).

Remark. The species is known exclusively from female specimens. However, having compared the illustrations of M. odontographa and M. allardi in Hacker et al. (2012: 328, 427), it seems to be highly likely that the two species are conspecific. As the author of the present paper could not locate specimens of either species for thorough examination, both taxa have tentatively been treated here as valid. It is also worth mentioning that M. inculta Hacker, 2012 described from Katanga Province, D.R. Congo and M. griseodentata Hacker, 2012 described from near Iringa, Tanzania are also confusingly similar to M. allardi both externally and in genital morphology. The female of M. inculta illustrated in Hacker et al. (2012: 332) is misidentified and is in fact M. monofascia (van Son, 1933) . In order to prove whether or not the four species are conspecific, examination of further material is necessary.

Distribution. Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast and Nigeria (Hacker et al. 2012).
