We review the morphology of species in this group and provide new diagnoses and ecological data for five species. The following taxonomic changes are proposed: Hygrostola dallolmoi (Berio, 1973) (= Conicofrontia dallolmoi Berio, 1973) comb. n. and Conicofrontia bipartita (Hampson, 1910) (= Phragmatiphila bipartita Hampson, 1910) comb. n., stat. rev. One new species is also described: C. lilomwa, sp. n. from Tanzania. Wing patterns as well as male and female genitalia of the five species are described and illustrated. Finally we carried out molecular phylogenetic and molecular species delimitation analyses on a multi-marker dataset of 31 specimens and 15 species, including the five mentioned species. The results of molecular analyses provide a clear support for the proposed taxonomical changes. specialized Conicofrontia molecular phylogenetics molecular species delimitation Sesamiina systematics taxonomy AFRIQUE DU SUD TANZANIE 076 080 3925 1 56-74 2015 1175-5326 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010063963 10.11646/zootaxa.3925.1.4 1175-5326 [F B010063963] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010063963 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2015/04/010063963.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2015-05-04 2021-10-20 fdi:010063963 fre
