status

 

Genus Chlorocala Kirby, 1828

Schauer (1941) had revised the representatives of Chlorocala under the name Smaragdesthes Kraatz, 1880 and Allard (1991) followed the same criterion. Beinhundner (2017a) recognized fourteen species in the genus. There are four species/subspecies recorded for Angola ( Paulino de Oliveira 1882; Schauer 1941; Ferreira 1965). Chlorocala viridicyanea (Palisot de Beauvois, 1821) was probably misinterpreted (see remarks under C. viridicyanea ). We add one more species to the Angolan entomofauna in this work.
