Taxonavigation

Ordo: Coleoptera
Familia: Chrysomelidae

Name

Afrorestia Bechyné, 1959b – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

References

Bechyné 1959b[1]: 232; Biondi and D’Alessandro 2010a[2]: 403.

Type species

Crepidodera laeviuscula Csiki in Heikertinger and Csiki 1940[3], 1940: 297 (West Africa), by original designation.

Distribution

Burundi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Madagascar, Republic of South Africa, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe (Fig. 281).

Ecology

Some species of this genus have been collected from plants in the family Apiaceae in South Africa (personal data).

Notes

About twenty described species. Crepidodera betiokyensis Bechyné (1954a: 46) from Madagascar, erroneously attributed to Afrocrepis Bechyné by Bechyné (1964[4]: 152), was transferred to this genus (cf. Scherer 1962b[5]: 57; Biondi and D’Alessandro 2010a[2]: 403). Crepidodera sjostedti Weise (1910a: 221) from Kilimanjaro was incorrectly attributed to Asiorestia Jacobson, 1925 (a genus that does not occur in the Afrotropical region) by Bechyné (1957[6]: 181). This species was transferred to Afrorestia Bechyné by Biondi and D’Alessandro (2010a[2]: 403).
