Genus Hydrotaea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830

Represented by 22 species in the Afrotropical Region, one of which has been recorded from Namibia. For generic diagnosis, see Couri et al. (2006). Hydrotaea capensis (Wiedemann, 1818) was recorded from Namibia by Emden (1948: 170, Windhoek); Zielke (1971 a: 176, Otjiwarongo, Farm, Abechaus); and Lindner (1976: 79, Ongeama) and was also found among material examined here. Hydrotaea jeanneli Séguy, 1938 represents a new record for Namibia.
