Genus Hemispathius Belokobylskij & Quicke, 2000 View in CoL View at ENA
Type species
Hemispathius polystenoides Belokobylskij & Quicke, 2000 View in CoL , by original designation.
Remarks
This genus was originally described from Central Africa ( Uganda). Examination of type material for Doryctes species described by Granger (1949) from Madagascar showed that D. pilosus Granger, 1949 actually belongs to Hemispathius (comb. nov.) due to its shorter and wider first metasomal tergite and its shorter acrosternite. This species, characterised by the entirely yellow colouration, is also found in Yemen.
Distribution
Afrotropical region.
