Abstract
Seven new species from Africa are described: Singilis (s.str.) bedimo sp.n. (Cameroon), Singilis (s.str.) mbolom sp.n. (Cameroon), Singilis (s.str.) lucidus sp.n. (RSA), Singilis (s.str.) shalapkoi sp.n. (RSA), Singilis (s.str.) ordinarius sp.n. (RSA, Zimbabwe), Singilis (s.str.) schuelei sp.n. (Zimbabwe), Singilis (s.str.) debilis sp.n. (RSA). Singilis (s.str.) dorsalis (Peringuey, 1896) is redescribed and two new synonyms are proposed: Phloeozetus dorsalis Peringuey, 1896 = Phloeozetus plausibilis Peringuey, 1896 syn. nov. = Phloeozetus simplex Peringuey, 1896 syn. nov. Illustrations of habitus and aedeagus for all species are provided. Identification key to small-size African species, with the disc of pronotum smooth or weakly and sparsely punctate, is given.
