Silba apodesma McAlpine, 1960 View in CoL
Described by McAlpine (1960: 368) from locations in South Africa and listed as occurring in Madagascar by McAlpine (1980).At that time S. apodesma was the only known member of the Silba admirabilis species-group known from the Afrotropical Region. In the recent review of the species-group MacGowan (2015) described S. spiculata from several localities in Madagascar. It is very likely that the previous S. apodesma records from Madagascar actually relate to the rather similar S. spiculata and as a result S. apodesma is removed from the Madagascar checklist.
