Extract

It is established that the genera Amira Lane, 1914, and Amiroides Strand, 1929, are synonyms of the genus Khalilia Neveu-Lemaire, 1924.

The two valid species, K. sameera and K. pileata, are redescribed.

K. sameera is designated as the type-species of the genus.

K. buta and K. rhinocerotis are considered to be synonyms of K. sameera, whilst K. straelini is considered to be a species dubia.

I wish to express my thanks to Dr W. G. Inglis, British Museum (Natural History), for his advice and criticism, and to Mr S. Prudhoe, British Museum (Natural History), for reading this paper in manuscript.

I would also like to thank Dr P. L. G. Benoit, Musée Royal de I'Afrique Centrale, Tervuren, Belgium, for the loan of material used in this study, and to Dr R. P. Lee, University College Dublin, Ireland, for the donation of specimens of K. sameera.
