New insigths on the distribution and floral choices of Systropha Illiger 1806 in Africa (Hymenoptera, Apoidea), with description of a new species from Sudan
[en] In the present paper, we describe a new species, Systropha martiali sp.nov. from central Sudan and we present additional records for two other species: Systropha norae Patiny and Systropha ugandensis Cockerell. The phylogenetic topology previously inferred for the genus is revised including the new species. A phylogenetic tree is presented with the known floral choices and distribution mapped upon it. This highlights a geographical component to the pattern of floral choice in Systropha
