Omoleon jeanneli Navás, 1936; by original designation and monotypy.</p><p>Distribution. This monospecific genus is known only from East Africa.</p><p>Remarks. Omoleon jeanneli Navás, 1936 superficially resembles Doblina tristigatus (Fraser, 1951), but it is easily distinguishable by the costal area of the forewing. Species of the genus Doblina Navás, 1927 have two rows of cells, but that of Omoleon Navás, 1936 has only a single row of cells. Based on the wing shape, non-opposable tarsal claws and the tibial spurs, the genus Omoleon can be differentiated from all other African Dendroleontini genera ( Cymothales Gerstaecker, 1893, Bankisus Navás, 1912, Tricholeon Esben-Petersen, 1925). The following characters separate the genus Omoleon from the genus Dendroleon Brauer, 1866: Rs arises close to cubital fork in Omoleon but they are far from each other in Dendroleon . Species of the genus Dendroleon are distributed in the Oriental and Palearctic realms, while Omoleon has an isolated distribution in Eastern Africa.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/0D664E4AFFFE02685B97F8A5FB0CFE9E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Scape shiny black, with short black hairs; basal part of pedicel black, otherwise brownish-yellow, with short black hairs. Flagellar segments yellow with short dense and black setae, club brown, covered with short dense and black setae.</p><p>Thorax: Pronotum subdiamond-shaped, longer than wide, yellow, with longitudinal indistinct and pale brown band and with many tiny brown spots where short white hairs originated; its margins with prominent white bristles (Fig. 4). Mesonotum – Prescutum dominantly brownish-yellow, with indistinct brown band and tiny brown spots. Mesoscutum yellow, with central longitudinal wide brown band and two short lateral brown lines, and with short, outstanding, sparse and white hairs. Central part of mesoscutellum brown, lateral part yellow. Metanotum yellow, with distinct median, longitudinal, wide and brown band, hairless. Sides yellow, almost bare, with distinct, longitudinal, wide and brown band and with sparse, short and white hairs.</p><p>Legs: Slender and long (Fig. 5). Dorsal sides of coxae brownish, ventral sides yellow; coxae with short, sparse and white hairs. Fore femur brown, with rather dense, black hairs and some long, black bristles.
