摘要
Cladocera fulvipennis Jacoby is transferred to Afrotropicaltica gen. nov., here described. The new genus belongs to the group of Afrotropical genera traditionally attributed to the Blepharida group: Blepharidina Bechyn & eacute;, Calotheca Heyden, Diamphidia Gerstaecker, Polyclada Chevrolat, and Xanthophysca Fairmaire. A diagnostic key to these genera, and the list of species currently attributed to Diamphidia and Polyclada are provided based on type material and original species descriptions. Species and genera whose taxonomic position needs a revision were identified. Finally, the following synonymy is proposed: Cladocera fulvipennis Jacoby, 1895 = Blepharida favareli Achard, 1922, syn. nov.
