Remarks.

The genus Glomeremus Karny, 1937 contains sixteen species in mainland Africa and Reunion, Mauritius and Socotra ( Cigliano et al. 2024 a). Hugel et al. (2010) and Cadena-Castañeda (2019) propose that the genus is likely polyphyletic, suggesting that the island species might warrant classification under a distinct genus. On Socotra, three species occur. Glomeremus pileatus ( Krauss, 1902) is strongly related to G. capitatus Uvarov, 1957 , whereas G. mediopictus Uvarov, 1957 differs strongly from the former two in the shape of terminalia and wings and may even merit placement in a separate genus.
