Tribe Dimarini Navás, 1914

Millerleon subdulus (Walker, 1853)

Specimens examined: 1 $ Peru Madre de Dios, Manu Park 500-800m --.2.1998 leg. NC/Lehmann; 2 <$ Peru Limony, Distr. Chochamaka 1800 m ,,.3-4.1999 leg. NC/ (GMU); 1 $ Peru Abancay Dept. Apurlmac ,,.01.1999 leg. NC/(GMU); 4 в 2 $ Peru Abancay; Dept. Apurimac 2-3000 m „.3-4.1999 leg. NC/(GMU).

Remarks: The tribe Dimarini Navás, 1914 from South America was revised by Stange (1989). During his revision, a new genus called Millerleon Stange, 1989 was described. He listed 3 species in the genus which were endemic in the desert areas of the Pacific coast. The type specimen was also found in Peru (Walker 1853). Its occurrence was also documented in Equador (Banks 1908). Dimares formosus Banks, 1908 and Dimares venustus Banks, 1908 proved to be synonyms (Stange 1989).

Tribe Palparini Banks, 1911

Annulares annulatus (Stitz, 1912)

Specimens examined: 2 $ 1 - Namibia ca. 80 km SW Windhoek 1360 m 12.1-10.2.1997 leg. H. Lehmann.

Remarks: The genus revision was performed by Mansell (2004). This species is known in Botswana, Namibia, and South Africa. An endemic species of the Kalahari Savannah (Mansell 2004). Imagoes fly from January to April.

Crambomorphus karrooanus (Péringuey, 1910) Specimens examined: 2 S 3 $ Namibia ca. 80 km NE Windhoek 4.1-4.2.1999 leg. H. Lehmann; 5 $ Namibia ca 80 km SW Windhoek 1360 m 12.1-10.2.1997 leg. H. Lehmann.

Remarks: A revision of this genus was recently published by Mansell (2018). So far, it has come only from Namibia and South Africa. It lives in dry and sparsely vegetated areas and flies in January and February.

Golafrus oneili (Péringuey, 1911)

Specimens examined: 2 $ Namibia ca 80 km SW Windhoek 1360 m 12.1-10.2.1997 leg. H. Lehmann; 1 S 10 $ Namibia Aranos 03.02.1995 leg. Werner.

Remarks: Within the tribe, the genus can be easily distinguished by very characteristic wing shape. The species inhabits arid sandy grasslands in Namibia and South Africa.

Goniocercus klugi (Kolbe, 1898)

Specimens examined: 2 <$ 1 $ Ethiopia Sidano near Negele borana 07-08.05.1997. leg. Werner.

Remarks: It is a very diverse species from a morphological point of view. There are small-sized (FW 45-50 mm) and fairly pale coloured winged specimens in the Arabian Peninsula (Klug 1836). There are large-sized (FW 57-75 mm), highly contrasting patterned winged specimens in and around the Ethiopian mountains (Stitz 1912), while there are also small-sized (FW 45- 50 mm) but contrasting winged specimens in the Subsaharan region (Mali). Genetic testing of the species would definitely be required. Prost (2010) figured a map of the distribution of the species.

Palparellus flavofasciatus (McLachlan, 1867) Specimens examined: 1 <$ 1 $ Namibia ca. 80 km NE Windhoek 4.1-4.2.1999 leg. H. Lehmann.

Remarks: The genus revision and species redescription were provided by Mansell (1996). He presented its habitat (open grasslands), adult flight period (December-April) and distribution (South Angola, Namibia).

Palpares chrysopterus Navás, 1911 Specimens examined: 3 S 2 $ Iran Wadi Shur, semidesert near Hasanabad 2-4 week of July, 1996 leg. G. Müller; 6 $ Iran Estalak, E of Teheran, indoturanisches Grassland 2-4 week of July, 1996 leg. G. Müller.

Remarks: In contrast to Krivokhatsky et al. (2017), this is a valid taxon. At first, Navás mentioned the name of the species and gave a description as well as illustrations on a male at the „Congreso de Valencia" held in 1910. The conference proceedings was in fact published in 1911, so this date should be considered the year of publication. He had previously made a description of this species on the basis of a female specimen, but this article did not appear until 1913 (Navás 1913). Thus, the publication of Navás (1911) can be considered as the first description of the species and the later published description (Navás 1913) is only a homonymous and synonymous name.

The distribution of the species has already been outlined by Ábrahám (2012).

Palpares immensus McLachlan, 1867 Specimens examined: 34 <$ 2 $ Namibia Aranos

03.02.1995 leg. Werner; 6 S 12 ? Namibia Fish River Canyon 04.-05.02.1995 leg. Werner; 8 <$ 9 $ Namibia ca 80 km SW Windhoek 1360 m 12.1-10.2.1997 leg. H. Lehmann.

Remarks: This species may be common in Namibia based on the preserved specimens of SCMK collection. The flight period of imagoes lasts from January to February. Most of the distribution data of the species are from Namibia (McLachlan 1867, Navás 1912b) or South Africa (Esben-Petersen 1916) and Southern Angola (Mansell 2002). Mansell & Oswald (2020) cited its occurrence in Angola, Botswana, Namibia, and South Africa. Faunistic data from Kilwa [Tanzania] documented by Navás (1912a) may be incorrect.
