  abstract = {{A} small group of six morphologically related seed beetles ({C}oleoptera: {C}hrysomelidae: {B}ruchinae) belonging to the {C}onicobruchus genus is reviewed. {S}pecies in this group for which host-plants are known feed on various species of {C}rotalaria ({F}abaceae, {C}rotalarieae). {H}ere we provide diagnoses and a dichotomous key for all six species. {T}he following synonymies are proposed: {C}onicobruchus cicatricosus ({F}ahraeus, 1839) (= {B}ruchus cicatricosus pallidioripennis {P}ic, 1941) syn. nov.; {C}onicobruchus strangulatus ({F}ahraeus, 1839) (= {B}ruchus hargreavesi {P}ic, 1933) syn. nov. {T}he corresponding {C}onicobruchus strangulatus species group is hereby designated. {N}ew host-plant data are also included, which correspond to the results of recent collections of legume pods in {E}ast {A}frica. {I}n addition we carried out molecular phylogenetic analyses on a representative sampling of {C}onicobruchus species (including the six species of interest). {T}he latter allow us to assess the monophyly of the group of interest and to unravel their evolutionary relationships. {M}olecular phylogenetic analyses also indicate that at least two lineages of {C}onicobruchus successfully shifted toward {C}rotalarieae during the course of their diversification.},
