dc.description.abstract"This is a taxonomic revision of Malagassy allodapine bees, with keys, descriptions, and illustrations. At least 13 species are known, seven of which (Braunsapis madecassella, Effractapis furax, Allodapula rufa and platyprosopon, Halterapis kraussi and tulearensis, and Macrogalea infernalis) are described as new and one, whose name was preoccupied, is provided with a new name (Allodapula benoisti). Outstanding among the findings are (1) a new parasitic genus, Effractapis, allied to and presumably parasitic upon Braunsapis; (2) distinctive groups of species tentatively placed in Halterapis and Allodapula but not closely related to other species of these South African genera; and (3) species of Braunsapis and Macrogalea closely related to African members of these genera"--P.
