  • The five dauber subgenera of Megachile that occur in southern Africa are revised. They are: Gronoceras, Maximegachile,Callomegachile, Chalicodoma and Pseudomegachile. This group comprises 43 valid species, nine of which are new to sci-ence. They are: Megachile (Callomegachile) soutpansbergensis sp.n., Megachile (Chalicodoma) gessorum sp.n., Mega-chile (Chalicodoma) sarahae sp.n., Megachile (Chalicodoma) richtersveldensis sp.n., Megachile (Pseudomegachile) gessisp.n., Megachile (Pseudomegachile) namibensis sp.n., Megachile (Pseudomegachile) pseudotaraxis sp.n., Megachile(Pseudomegachile) taraxis sp.n. and Megachile (Pseudomegachile) pseudotaraxis sp.n. Thirty-four new synonynyms havebeen recorded. Megachile simpsoni race yapiensis Cockerell is a junior synonym of Megachile bombiformis Gerstaecker;Megachile combusta Smith, Megachile nigrocincta Ritsema and Megachile tricolor Friese are synonyms of Megachile cincta(Fabricius); Megachile cerberus var. optima Cockerell is a synonym of Megachile felina Gerstaecker; Megachile chrysor-rhoea Gerstaecker is a synonym of Megachile rufipennis (Fabricius); Megachile perniciosa Friese, Megachile perniciosa var.pallipennis Friese and Megachile aridissima Cockerell are synonyms of Megachile rufiventris Guérin–Méneville; Megachileexcavata Cockerell is a synonym of Megachile demeter (Cockerell); Megachile kamerunensis totafusca Pasteels is a syn-onym of Megachile kamerunensis Friese; Megachile tritacantha Pasteels is a synonym of Megachile sheppardi (Pasteels);Megachile musculus Friese, Megachile johannis Pasteels, Megachile biexcisa Pasteels and Megachile johannis fulvosetosaPasteels are synonyms of Megachile karooensis Brauns; Megachile insolita Pasteels, Megachile reicherti Brauns, Megachileacanthura Cockerell, Megachile bipunctulata Pasteels and Megachile aurulenta Pasteels are synonyms of Megachile muri-na Friese; Megachile cinctiventris Friese, Megachile albopilosa Friese and Megachile lineofasciata Pasteels are synonymsof Megachile niveofasciata Friese; Megachile congruens Friese and Megachile flaviventris Friese are synonyms of Mega-chile schulthessi Friese; Megachile empeyi Pasteels is a synonym of Megachile cradockensis Friese; Megachile torridusSmith, Megachile decemsignata Radoszkowski and Megachile junodi Friese are synonyms of Megachile fervida (Smith);Megachile bullata Friese and Megachile trisecta Pasteels are synonyms of Megachile nasicornis Friese; Megachile laminataFriese and Megachile armatipes Friese are synonyms of Megachile mossambica Gribodo.
