RSA (Natal) n atalensis Petrovitz, 1964 10 (1) Disc of pronotum distinctly with finer and sparser punctures than sides. 11 (12) Clypeus deeply emarginate, both sides rather narrowly lobed. Yellowish brown. Genae scarcely produced. Basis of pronotum without border. Elytra deeply furrowed. Hind metatarsi longer than upper thorn and as long as next two joints together. 2.8-3.5 mm RSA (Transvaal) bibatlllatus Petrovitz, 1958 12 (11) Clypeus not or weakly emarginate, both sides rounded. 13 (22) Primary intervals of elytra carinated or roof-shaped, only edge shiny. 14 (15) Very small reddish yellow species. Clypeus truncate, genae lightly produced. Head and pronotum finely punctate. Hind metatarsi much longer than upper thorn and about as long as next two joints together. 2.5 mm. - RSA (Transvaal), (= costatulus Endrődi, 1964 ) burorum Endrődi, 1981 15 (14) Bigger species, 2.8-6 mm, combination of characters different. 16 (17) Black, anterior angles of pronotum reddish. Genae scarcely produced.

Posterior part of elytra with very fine pubescence. Pronotum aciculate, aciculation denear &mi deeper on sides. Elytral striae geminate, cowtae more sharply earinate and more distinctly punctate on sides. - RSA (Cape Province) madioKimus Péringuey, 1901 19 (18) 3.4-4.3 mm. 20 (21) Clypeus scarcely emarginate, genae not produced, head very finely and sparsely punctate. Sides of pronotum with sparse setae, disc finely punctate, on sides mixed with bigger punctures. Intervals obtusely carinated with reticulated sides. Hind metatarsi longer than upper thorn and almost as long as next three joints together. 4-4.3 mm. - RSA (Natal) dingaani Petrovitz, 1964 21 (20) Very similar to preceding, but head densely punctate, distance between punctures as short as a puncture. Sides of pronotum without setae, surface everywhere densely punctate, on sides with bigger punctures. 3.4-3.9 mm. - RSA (Cape Province) simillimus Petrovitz, 1964 22 (13) Primary intervals weakly or strongly convex, not carinated. 23 (26) Basis of pronotum bordered (in A . rotschildi Schm. interrupted in the middle, in A. reticulatus Endr. very fine or indistinct, cf. in antithesis). 24 (25) Disc of pronotum not very densely micropunctate with a few big punctures, latter dense on sides, hind angles emarginate.
