Two new species and two new genera (Pachyphasma, Striatophasma) of Mantophasmatodea are described from Namibia. Pachyphasma brandbergense is endemic to the Brandberg massif; Striatophasma occupies an extensive area south of the region inhabited by Mantophasma. Phylogenetic analyses (see Predel et al. in press) suggest a sistergroup relationship of Striatophasma and the South African Austrophasmatidae.
在纳米比亚发现了螳螂竹节虫目的两个新物种以及两个新属(粗竹节虫属、纹竹节虫属)。布兰德贝格粗竹节虫是布兰德贝格山脉特有的物种;纹竹节虫分布在螳螂竹节虫栖息地以南的广大区域。系统发育分析(见普雷德尔等人即将发表的文章)表明纹竹节虫属与南非的南澳竹节虫科存在姐妹群关系。
