Abstract

Leptus (L.) cameroonicus sp. nov. is described based on larvae ectoparasitic on Eyprepocinemis plorans ibandana (Orthoptera: Acrididae). Charletonia braunsi (Oudemans, 1910) is reported for the first time from Cameroon. E. plorans ibandana is new host for Leptus species, C. braunsi, C. cameroonensis Haitlinger & Kekeonou, 2014 and C. justynae Haitlinger, 1987. New metric and meristic data for the descriptions of L. (L.) aggoratus Haitlinger, 1990, L. (L.) bertoldi Haitlinger, 1993, L. (L.) benzaliensis Fain & Elsen, 1972, L. (L.) maranaensis Haitlinger, 1987, L. (L.) maringensis Fain & Elsen, 1972, L. (L.) mogadoranus Haitlinger, 1990, L. (L.) ogazulacus Haitlinger, 1990, L. (L.) pasopaicus Haitlinger, 1990 and Charletonia cameroonensis, based on examination of type material and additional specimens, are provided. Status of Momorangia gabini Haitlinger, 2004 is discussed. M. gabini is correct name, not Charletonia gabini. Keys to African Leptus and Charletonia are provided.
