Abstract

The taxonomy and distribution of the Afrotropical tussock moth genus Neomardara Hering, 1926 is revised and five species are distinguished based on morphological characters, two of which are described as new to science: Neomardara fontainei and N. congolana spp. n. Based on material sampled during recent fieldwork and located in collections, an updated distribution map of all species of the genus is provided. Both sexes of all species and their genitalia are illustrated in 92 diagnostic figures.
