The six species of Neaspasia Diakonoff present in mainland Africa are described and illustrated. Niphadophylax albonigra Razowski & Wojtusiak and N. sophrona Razowski & Wojtusiak are transferred to Conaspasia, new genus. Four new species are described: Neaspasia coronana Aarvik, new species, N. karischi Aarvik, new species, N. malamigambo Aarvik, new species, and Conaspasia congolana Aarvik, new species. Argyroploce orthacta Meyrick, Argyroploce brevisecta Meyrick, and Penthina brevibasana Walsingham are transferred to Neaspasia. Neaspasia rhodesiae Razowski & Brown is a junior synonym of Neaspasia orthacta (Meyrick), new combination. Genetancylis homalota Razowski and Rhopobota cornuta Razowski, both described from Oman, are transferred to Neaspasia. Genetancylis Razowski is synonymised with Neaspasia.
描述并说明了分布于非洲大陆的六种新澳绢蛾属（Neaspasia Diakonoff）物种。白黑尼帕绢蛾（Niphadophylax albonigra Razowski & Wojtusiak）和索弗罗娜尼帕绢蛾（N. sophrona Razowski & Wojtusiak）被转移到新属康纳绢蛾属（Conaspasia）。描述了四个新物种：冠状新澳绢蛾（Neaspasia coronana Aarvik）、卡里施新澳绢蛾（N. karischi Aarvik）、马拉米甘博新澳绢蛾（N. malamigambo Aarvik）和刚果康纳绢蛾（Conaspasia congolana Aarvik）。直纹银纹夜蛾（Argyroploce orthacta Meyrick）、短切银纹夜蛾（Argyroploce brevisecta Meyrick）和短基五纹夜蛾（Penthina brevibasana Walsingham）被转移到新澳绢蛾属。罗德西亚新澳绢蛾（Neaspasia rhodesiae Razowski & Brown）是直纹新澳绢蛾（Neaspasia orthacta (Meyrick)）的次异名，新组合。均来自阿曼的霍马洛塔遗传绢蛾（Genetancylis homalota Razowski）和角突拟螟蛉（Rhopobota cornuta Razowski）被转移到新澳绢蛾属。遗传绢蛾属（Genetancylis Razowski）与新澳绢蛾属同义。
