Remarks. Rhysida immarginata ( Porat, 1876 ) , with types from the Philippines , has in recent years included the western African R. togoensis Kraepelin, 1903 , as a subspecies ( R. immarginata togoensis ) (e.g., Lewis 2001a ). Here we follow the original usage of R. togoensis sensu Kraepelin (1903) , a species widely distributed across the Western Africa region.
