Abstract

Only three of the four species assigned to the genus Cooperioides are considered valid and are redescribed. The fourth species Cooperioides kenyensis Daubney, 1933 is considered a synonym of Cooperioides hamiltoni (Mönnig, 1932) Mönnig, 1933. A key to the species of the genus is given and their hosts and geographical localities are listed.
