Hister katangensis Burgeon, 1939 View in CoL
Described originally ( Burgeon, 1939: 94) as a subspecies of Hister ritsemae Marseul and later raised up to the specific rank by Thérond (1967: 285). An examination of the type showed, however, that H. katangensis Burgeon differed from H. ritsemae not only by external characters (feebly and shallowly punctured pygidial segments) but also by different shape of the male genital structure ( Figs. 16-20). (For those of H. ritsemae Marseul see Mazur, 2007, figs. 21-23).
