| Abstract: | The author gives the results of his studies of horseflies, from several former Portuguese African territories, in the collection of the Zoological Center of the Institute of Tropical Scientific Research, Lisbon. Among the 24 taxonomic entities identified, Tabanus quadrisignatus is newly recorded from Portuguese Guinea (now Guinea-Bissau) and Haematopota lewisi is newly recorded from Angola. In addition, H. angolensis sp. nov. and H. chongoroiensis sp. nov., both from Angola, are described as new. A gazetteer of collection sites, with associated tabanid species, is appended. |
