Genus Xeloma Kraatz, 1881

Holm (1988) provided a diagnosis of the genus, a key to the eight known species and information on their types and distribution patterns. Since this date more five species were described, as well as three subspecies (see updates in Beinhundner 2017a). Beinhundner (1999) makes a synonymic revision of the genus. Three species/subspecies were recorded previously for Angola (Holm 1988).
