摘要
Taxonomic and faunistic results are presented on five genera of the Spilomelinae based on material collected in the Afrotropical parts of the Arabian Peninsula. Synclera fifensis sp.n. is newly described. The differential characters from the closest related congeners Synclera traducalis Zeller, 1852 and Synclera seychellensis Shaffer & Munroe, 2007 are listed. The three species form a complex of species discernible in internal character states only. A determination key to the members of this species group is provided. Four new combinations into the genus Pramadea Moore, 1888 are proposed—Pramadea trifidalis (Hampson, 1908) comb.n., Pramadea albopunctum (Guillermet, 1996) comb.n., Pramadea christophalis (Viette, 1988) comb.n. and Pramadea minoralis (Warren, 1892) comb.n. Pramadea trifidalis (Hampson, 1908) comb.n. is redescribed and reported as new for the fauna of Saudi Arabia. The male, female genitalia and tympanal are figured. Chabulina astomalis (Felder & Rogenhofer, 1875) is reported as new to the entomofauna of the Arabian Peninsula. The records of the closely related Chabulina onychinalis (Guené e, 1854) for the Arabian Peninsula are discussed and put into question. The presence of Pardomima zanclophora Martin, 1955 and Hodebertia testalis (Fabricius, 1794) on the Arabian Peninsula is reconfirmed by recent records from Saudi Arabia.
