Description
Genus Monophlebus Guérin-Méneville
Monophlebus is a genus of 12 species, three of which occur in Africa (García Morales et al. 2016). Like the Indonesian genotype, M. raddoni (in West Africa) was described from a male so the morphology of the female is unknown (García Morales et al. 2016).
Key to species of Monophlebus found in North Africa , adult females, based on Vayssière (1932).
