Callirhipis philiberti Fairmaire, 1891 from theSeychelles is redescribed based on the type specimen and recently collected material. A study of the type specimen of the enigmatic Madagascan species C. hovana Fairmaire,1901 revealed, that it is in fact a member of the family Elateridae, and is conspecific with Hemiopinus hildebrandti Fairmaire, 1883. Therefore C. hovana syn. nov. is here regarded as a junior subjective synonym of H. hildebrandti. The presently known distribution of the family Callirhipidae in the Afrotropical zoogeographical region is briefly discussed.}, type={Text}, title={A taxonomic review of the Callirhipidae (Insecta: Coleoptera: Elateriformia) of the Afrotropical Region}, volume={58}, number={3}, journal={Annales Zoologici}, publisher={Natura optima dux Foundation}, keywords={Coleoptera, Callirhipidae, Elateridae, Callirhipis, Hemiopinus, new synonymy, Afrotropical Region, Madagascar, Seychelles}, }
