Abstract

Stichotrema pasteelsi (Luna de Carvalho, 1956) is redescribed based on the type specimen, other specimens collected by Luna de Carvalho, and an additional collection of specimens from Ghana. Stichotrema szekessyi (Luna de Carvalho, 1959) becomes a junior synonym of S. pasteelsi based on current knowledge of the variation within the species. A checklist of African Stichotrema is provided along with comments on the known distribution of the genus in Africa.
