| Résumé : | Occurrence records of the genus Orubesa Reitter, 1895, in the Arabian Penisula and surrounding areas are presented. Morphological study of types and additional specimens, for the first time considering endophallic sclerites, revealed that all northeast African and Arabian specimens belong to one taxon, Orubesa plicifrons semenowi (Arrow, 1911). The synonymy of both O. sudanica (Balthasar, 1871) and O. linnavuorii (Endrödi, 1970) with O. plicifrons semenowi is confirmed. The first records of Orubesa from Yemen are given.http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:62C7A1C5-1669-42A3-B840-FFC6E098221E |
