Type species
Chabria nigroplagiata Jacoby, 1887: 92 (Sri Lanka: Bogawantalawa), by subsequent designation by Maulik (1926: 312).

There is no information for the Afrotropical region. Chabria species were collected on Melastoma (Melastomataceae) in Malaysia (Jolivet and Hawkeswood 1995[3]), in cacao plantations [Theobroma cacao L. (Malvaceae)] in Sulawesi (Indonesia) (Medvedev 2008[4]) and in primary forest in Mindanao (Philippines) (Medvedev 2002[5]).
Notes
Four species are known from Afrotropical region, one from Sub-Saharan Africa, probably introduced, and three from Madagascar.
