Genus Rhabdotis Burmeister, 1842

A diagnosis of the genus, a key to the nine species hitherto known, their types and distribution patterns were given by Holm (1991a). Since this date more sixteen species were described, as well as four subspecies from different African countries (see updates in Beinhundner 2017a). Within this assemblage, only two species were recorded for Angola with certitude ( Paulino de Oliveira 1882; Rigout & Allard 1992; Beinhundner 2017a; Schoolmeesters 2018).
