“…A further two species, A. caerulea Bartsch, 2016 from South Africa and A. haematopis (Fawcett, 1916), widespread from the Arabian Peninsula to Kenya and Botswana, were added by bArtsch (2016). The closest relative of Afromelittia is the American genus Eichlinia Gorbunov, 2020. In 1992, Dr. MichAel Gruschwitz, a biologist and friend of the second author, carried out a zoological sur vey in The Gambia, West Africa, supported by the Gam bian Wildlife Conservation Department.
