Gonatopus africanus (Benoit, 1951) new comb. Antaphelopus africanus Benoit 1951d: 23 . Aphelopus africanus (Benoit) : Olmi 1984: 1798 . Description. ♂ . Fully winged; body length 1.8 mm (according to the original description). Holotype very damaged, with head, metasoma, legs and right wings missing (originally they were present). According to the original description, head and antenna black, mesosoma black (but it is presently brown); metasoma black; legs black, except tarsi and tibiae yellow. According to the original description, head with frons and vertex shiny and smooth; frontal line incomplete, only anteriorly present; occiput emarginated and concave; POL longer than OOL; mandible tridentate; clypeus regularly rounded and convex; eyes setose. According to the original description, antennomeres of approximately equal lengths. Palpal ratio unknown. According to the direct personal study of the holotype : mesoscutum shiny, slightly granulate; notauli incomplete, reaching approximately 0.5 × length of mesoscutum; mesoscutellum and metanotum shiny, unsculptured; metapectal-propodeal disc shiny, unsculptured, not reticulate rugose; mesopleuron and metapleuron shiny, unsculptured; forewing hyaline, without dark transverse bands, with only costal cell distinctly visible, with distal part of 2r-rs&Rs vein approximately as long as proximal part. According to the original description, metasoma laterally flat. Genital armature missing. Tibial spurs unknown. ♀ . Unknown. Material examined . Type : ♂ holotype : DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO : North Kivu , Virunga National Park (= Albert National Park ), May-ya-Moto , 950 m , 16.IX.1934 , Miss. G.F. de Witte ( MRAC ) . Hosts . Unknown. Distribution . Democratic Republic of the Congo . Remarks . The emarginated occiput and unsculptured metapectal-propodeal disc place this species with Gonatopus . This genus is divided into many groups based on ♀♀ . The ♀ of this species is unknown, so that it is impos- sible to place it in a group. It is inevitable that it needs to be included among the incertae sedis species.
