The Afrotropical fauna contains five genera of Argidae. These are keyed. New subjective synonyms, followed by the valid name in brackets, are Calarge Enslin, 1911 [Arge Schrank, 1802], Calarge africana Enslin, 1911 [Arge congrua Konow, 1907], Clyparge Pasteels, 1963 [Scobina Lepeletier & Serville, 1828], Clyparge terminalis Pasteels, 1963 [Scobina poecila (Klug, 1834)], and Sterictophora [sic] afra Pasteels, 1963 [Sphacophilus afer comb. n., species inquirenda near S. monjarasi Smith & Morales-Reyes, 2015]. The type material of both C. terminalis and S. afra was probably collected in the New World, but labelled with the wrong locality “Kamerun”. An introduction of both species to Africa, not followed by long-term establishment, seems less likely. The removal of these taxa from the faunal list of the region is recommended. The nine known Afrotropical species of Pampsilota are revised, and an illustrated dichotomous identification key presented, with distribution maps for all species. Four species are here described as new to science: P. dahomeyanus Goergen, Koch & Liston, sp. n., P. nigeriae Liston & Koch, sp. n., P. tsavoensis Liston & Koch, sp. n., and P. zebra Liston & Koch, sp. n. Lectotypes are designated for Pampsilota afer Konow, 1899, and Cipdele africana Mocsáry, 1909. The immature stages and host plant of only one species are known: P. dahomeyanus on Lannea nigritana (Anacardiaceae). Its larval morphology strongly resembles that of European and North American species of Arge. We provisionally retain Pampsilota as a valid genus, although it could justifiably be treated as comprising merely a species group, or groups, within Arge.

1899 年对 Argidae 的 Afrotropical 属和 Pampsilota Konow 种的修订（膜翅目，Tenthredinoidea）

非洲热带动物群包含 Argidae 的五个属。这些是键控的。新的主观同义词，后跟括号中的有效名称，是 Calarge Enslin, 1911 [Arge Schrank, 1802]、Calarge Africana Enslin, 1911 [Arge congrua Konow, 1907]、Clyparge Pasteels, 1963 [Scobina Lepeletier & Serville], 182 Clyparge terminalis Pasteels，1963 [Scobina poecila (Klug, 1834)] 和 Sterictophora [原文如此] afra Pasteels，1963 [Sphacophilus afer comb。n.，S. monjarasi 附近的物种查询 Smith & Morales-Reyes，2015]。C. terminalis 和 S. afra 的类型材料很可能是在新世界收集的，但标有错误的产地“Kamerun”。将这两个物种引入非洲，而不是长期建立，似乎不太可能。建议将这些分类群从该地区的动物群列表中删除。对 Pampsilota 的九种已知非洲热带物种进行了修订，并提供了带插图的二分识别键，以及所有物种的分布图。四个物种在这里被描述为科学新物种：P. dahomeyanus Goergen, Koch & Liston, sp。n., P. nigeriae Liston & Koch, sp. n., P. tsavoensis Liston & Koch, sp. n., 和 P. zebra Liston & Koch, sp. n. 选型被指定为 Pampsilota afer Konow, 1899 和 Cipdele Africana Mocsáry, 1909。已知只有一种物种的未成熟阶段和寄主植物：P. dahomeyanus on Lannea nigritana (Anacardiaceae)。它的幼虫形态与欧洲和北美的 Arge 物种非常相似。我们暂时保留 Pampsilota 作为一个有效属，尽管它可以合理地被视为仅包含 Arge 内的一个或多个物种组。
