Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Mervyn Mansell
Comment:   The genus is very widespread in the Afrotropical Region, but taxonomically complex because of the large numbers of species and, particularly, the numerous synonyms. Adults are cryptically grey, hirsute antlions.
