Key to species of Monophlebus found in North Africa , adult females, based on Vayssière (1932) . 1(0) Some of largest body hairs multi-branched. Lateral body margins with many setae longer and denser than elsewhere. Each trochanter with setae all fairly short. Inner side of tibia with about 10 short spines in addition to apical cluster.......... dumonti - All body hairs unbranched. Lateral body margins with setae not markedly longer or denser than elsewhere. Each trochanter with 1 seta much longer than others. Inner side of tibia with about 5 robust setae in addition to small apical cluster.... hoggarensis
