Genus Gnathocera Kirby, 1825
This is one of the most species rich genera in Africa with more than 70 species/subspecies described (e.g. see Krajcik 2008a), but probably many of them without validity as was already pointed out by Holm & Marais (1992). There are two subgenera, the nominal one and Gnathocerida Péringuey, 1907 ( Beinhundner 2017b) . The genus is represented in Guinea-Bissau by two species in the nominal subgenus ( Brivio 1958).
