Material examined: 1 ♂ (PG Bldz 16919) “ UGANDA: Fort Portal, 5000 ft., F.W. Edwards, Ruwenzori Range, xii.1934 - i.1935, B. M. E. Afr. Exp., B. M. 1935-203, coll. NHMUK. 1 ♂ (GP Wf 8438) “ KENYA Rift Valley | Kap- tagat, 7000ft | 15.i.2000 | D.J.L. Agassiz”, coll. NHMUK.
Note: The species was described from a single male in modest conditions. Based on the African specimens, particularly those from of Kenya, we provide a more accurate description of the adult.
Diagnosis: Species with a light brown, uniform, shiny colour. The male genitalia are completely different from those of all the Afrotropical species. In the shape of phallotheca and vesica and in overall appearance, it resembles Coleophora facilis (Falkovitsh, 1988), a species from Turkmenistan, but with obvious differences: in the male genitalia of C. facilis the tegumen is narrower and longer, the cucullus is much shorter, and the sacculus is larger with a triangular tip in the ventral corner.
Description: Wingspan 12 mm. Head shiny light brown. Antenna completely light brown, scape without erect scales. Labial palpus pale brown, with a darker shade on the dorsal side; the second article as long as the third. Proboscis short, about the length of the second article of the labial palpus. Thorax and tegula of the same colour as the head. Forewing of uniform shiny light brown, with darker shade at the apex; fringes of the same colour. Hindwing light grey with fringes the same colour as the ones on the forewing. Abdomen light brown.
Bionomy: The early stages and the foodplant are unknown.
Distribution: This species, previously known only from Yemen (Arabian Peninsula), is new for Africa: Uganda and Kenya .

Diagnosis. Coleophora nyanzaensis is ochre with white streaking along the veins. The male genitalia do not resemble those of any other known species due to the robust rounded protuberance in the ventral corner of the sacculus and the small protuberance in the dorsal corner. The phallotheca is also characteristic, with one of the two juxta rods harpoon-shaped.
Description. Wingspan 10–11 mm. Head white, slightly suffused ochre dorsally. Antenna white; scape without erect scales. Labial palpus white on inner side and brown on lower part of outer side; second segment about twice as long as third. Proboscis normal, slightly longer than labial palpus. Thorax and tegula white, slightly tinged with ochre. Forewing ochre, white streaked more evident along costa, anal fold, and dorsum; costal fringe ochre, dorsal fringe light ochre-grey. Hindwing light grey with light ochre-grey fringe. Abdomen dirty white.
Male genitalia (Figs. 56–58): Gnathos knob globular. Tegumen stout, narrow in middle, pedunculus slightly dilated outside. Transtilla thin and elongated, slightly curved. Valvula small, curved on ventral edge. Cucullus short, narrower at base. Sacculus strongly curved on ventral edge with a robust rounded protuberance on ventral corner and a short and thin protuberance on dorsal corner. Phallotheca with two juxta rods, shorter curved and pointed at apex, longer terminating in shape of a harpoon. Cornuti short, consisting of an elongated structure with numerous small spines.
Female genitalia: Unknown.
Abdominal structures (Fig. 59): No posterior lateral struts. Transverse strut slightly curved and thicker on distal edge. Tergal disk about 5 times longer than wide, covered by about 25 spines.
Bionomy. The early stages and the foodplant are unknown.
Distribution. The species is known from Uganda and Tanzania.
Etymology. The name derives from the word Nyanza, which in the Kyniarwanda language refers to Lake Victoria, because the collection sites are part of the region surrounding the lake.

description: Subgenus Leiopus Audinet-Serville, 1835
Redescription: Antennae in males up to twice as long as body, antennomeres II–V not fimbriate beneath (may have a few sub-erect hairs). The prosternal process mostly relatively narrow, often less than half as wide as mesosternal process. Lateral spines placed near or a little behind the middle (as in Acanthocinus). Elytra with appressed pubescence, the lateral elytral margins straight the first ½ and thereafter evenly curved toward outer apical angle, giving the appearance of less elongated elytra. Elytra sub-depressed and often curved from ¾ towards apex (seen from the side). Costae at best weakly developed. Each elytron at the base with a weak swelling. Legs short compared to Acanthocinus spp. Hind tarsi stout, with tarsomere I up to 1.4 x as long as tarsomeres II & III combined. Femora slender to slightly swollen. Male genitalia with elongated parameres: well separated along inner margin, base of tegmen narrow and distinctly bent on the middle, anterior margin of tergite VIII evenly curved or weakly notched. The sclerites inside the internal sac very short and vary in shape, but usually form a shaft with or without a distinct head (cf. Sama 1985). Prosternal process usually quite narrow, often less than half as broad as mesosternal process. Entire spermatheca well sclerotized, relatively short (approx. 0.4 to 0.6 mm long, as measured diagonally the longest distance from the base to the tip of the head) and weakly or acutely curved with a distinctly rounded or sharp head, but without any trace of a secondary shaft or “curl” connected to the head. The apex of sternite VII in females mostly straight but sometimes curved or, rarely, notched in the middle. Ovipositor very short, yellow to brown, and protruding only slightly beyond the last visible sternite.
Type species: Leiopus nebulosus (Linnaeus, 1758), type designation by Thomson (1864).

description: Leiopus (Carinopus) shibatai Hayashi, 1974
Figs. 19, 20, 44, 67, 81, 95.
Readily identified by relatively fine, sparse punctuation on elytra, with distance between each puncture greater than width of one puncture (Figs 19, 20). The numerous small tufted tubercles with black hairs longitudinally along each costa, giving the entire elytra a distinctly spotted appearance. Elytra with a uniform yellowish colour on a dark brown integument giving a more or less green lustre, interrupted with a transversal oblique black band (or squareshaped spots) below middle but not covering the area between costae 1 and 2. The posterior margin of tergite VII in the male notched in the middle, with short, yellowish hairs. Similar to L. ocellatus, L. holzschuhi and L. multipunctellus but different in having sparse and weak punctures on elytra, short and blunt lateral spines on pronotum, distinctly spotted costae, and lack of whitish pubescence on elytra. Male genitalia distinctly different from the other 3 species mentioned earlier. Crescent-shaped sclerites at proximal end of basal segment very fine, the fork-like median sclerite well developed and similar to the median sclerite of L. campbelli.
Examined male: length 9.1 mm, width 3.1 mm. HT male: length 9.5 mm, width 3.5 mm according to Hayashi (1974). Aedeagus: Approx. 1.5 mm long, relatively slender, narrowed and weakly curved towards apex, dorsal ridge not wider than the ventral ridge towards apex (Fig. 67). Crescent-shaped sclerites at proximal end of basal segment very fine, and median fork-like sclerite inside the internal sac well developed (the sclerotized shaft weakly twisted); surrounding intersegmental membrane with coarse, square-shaped micro-reticulation (Fig. 44). Tegmen: Approx. 1.8 mm, parameres slender and slightly flattened dorso-ventrally, well separated medially along inner margin and towards apex (Fig. 81). Apex evenly rounded along entire posterior margin, with fringes made up of relatively long, yellowish hairs on the edge of apex on the last 1/3 of the parameres. Very weak micro-reticulation towards apex. Base of tegmen extended and strongly curved dorso-ventrally on middle. Tergite VIII: Approx. 0.65 mm long, yellowish with brownish pigmentation on entire surface. Anterior part with short, fine, yellowish hairs distally towards the posterior margin (Fig. 95). Entire surface with weak, but clearly visible, micro-reticulation.
Remarks: This species is endemic to the island of Taiwan (Fig. 99).

description: Description of Acanthocinus subgenus Acanthobatesianus subgen. nov.
Elytra smooth with at most very weak costae, legs long and slender, antennae 2– 5 x longer than body (shorter in females), femora slender to slightly swollen, ovipositor very short, antennomeres III–V not fimbriate beneath. Pronotum with only 2 anterior, glabrous tubercles. Prosternal process about half as broad as mesosternal process.
Hind tarsi long and slender (the first segment about 1.5 x longer than segments II and III combined). Male genitalia with very short parameres, not separated along inner margin, tegmen forming a straight line, i.e. not bent in middle, anterior margin of tergite VIII strongly elongated with a pointed (sharp) apex. Sclerites inside internal sac very short and fork-like in shape (but well sclerotized). Last visible abdominal sternite in males deeply notched. Ovipositor and last visible abdominal sternite short in females. Spermatheca very small, with a very short secondary shaft or “proboscis” connected to the head.
Type species: Acanthocinus (Acanthobatesianus) guttatus (Bates, 1873)
Etymology: The name Acanthobatesianus is a combination of parts of the names Acanthocinus and the auctor Bates.

Material. SOUTH INDIA, state Tamil Nadu, Coimbatore, September 1960, coll. P.S. Nathan— 1 female (MMUM).
Description. The studied female is similar to that of T. porcellana, but can readily be distinguished from it by the following characters: the pronotum semicircular (Fig. 16 I); the tegmina less sclerotized, the venation wellmarked, with whitish strips along veins (Fig. 16 I); the wings strongly reduced.
Head slightly longer than wide (Fig. 16 H); facial part with weak impression between antennal sockets; ocellar spots smaller, as compared to male of P. pallens; distance between eyes 1.3 times of the eye length; distance between antennal sockets about 2.1 times of the scape length (0.9 mm); approximate length ratio of 3rd–5th segments of maxillary palps 1.1: 1: 1.3. Anterior margin of fore femur armed according to the type B, with 3 spines, including 1 apical one. Anal plate less protruded caudally and cerci shorter (Fig. 13 K), as compared with T. porcellana. Genital plate with caudal margin widely rounded (Fig. 13 L). Structures of ovipositor less sclerotized (Fig. 15 E), as compared with T. porcellana. Basivalvulae in shape of two asymmetrical sclerites, more elongated (Fig. 15 E, bsv.), as compared with T. porcellana. Apical parts of vestibular sclerite forked (Fig. 15 E, vs.).
Measurements (mm). Head length: 3.6; head width: 3.3; pronotum length: 4.5; pronotum width: 8.4; tegmen length: 13.0; tegmen width (in place where CuP running into posterior margin of tegmen): 6.0.

Type species: Polyzosteria orientalis Burmeister, 1838. By subsequent designation.
Note. The genus Opisthoplatia includes two species (Beccaloni 2007): the widespread O. orientalis and O. beybienkoi Anisyutkin, 2005 known only from the Mindoro Island of the Philippines (Anisyutkin 2005). The range of O. orientalis includes India, Indochina peninsula, Java, China and Japan (Princis 1967; Beccaloni 2007). I have never seen specimens of O. orientalis from India or Sri Lanka; it is likely to be an invasive species in these countries. The morphology of O. orientalis was described by Anisyutkin (1999).
