Abstract
The genus Neomacrocoris is endemic to Africa and represented by 12 known species with scant mention in the literature. Presented here is an annotated list of the species summarizing the literature and providing available diagnostic information, illustrations, known repositories of types, and a taxonomic key.

N. handlirschi var. armatus Poisson 1948 is synonymized with N. handlirschi handlirschi (Montandon 1909). Further, designated here are a neotype for N. usambaricus Montandon and lectotypes for N. dubius Poisson, N. handlirschi (Montandon), N. hungerfordi Poisson, N. nanus Poisson, N. parviceps (Montandon), and N. transvaalensis.
