In this study, two remarkable species and genera of African Synanthedonini are described from the Nimba Mountains, Liberia: Nimbamina blei gen. sp. nov., maybe related to Tipulamima Holland, 1893, and Chlorosphecia bele gen. sp. nov., related to the genera Lepidopoda Hampson, 1900, Macrotarsipodes Le Cerf, 1916 and Macrotarsipus Hampson, [1893]. These species represent the third report of Sesiidae from Liberia. Exceptionally remarkable is Nimbamina blei gen. sp. nov., that has extremely long and slender body and legs and is currently the only known member of the family whose antennae are covered with extremely long scales on the dorsal surface.
在这项研究中，描述了来自利比里亚宁巴山的两个非凡的非洲 Synanthedonini 物种和属：Nimbamina blei gen. sp. nov.，可能与 Tipulamima Holland, 1893 有关，以及 Chlorosphecia bele gen. sp. nov.，与 Lepidopoda Hampson, 1900、Macrotarsipodes Le Cerf, 1916 和 Macrotarsipus Hampson, [1893] 属有关。这些物种代表了鳞翅目从利比里亚的第三次报告。极其显著的是 Nimbamina blei gen. sp. nov.，它的身体和腿非常细长，目前是已知的家族成员中唯一一个触角背面覆盖着极长鳞片的成员。
