The Campsicnemus armatus species group differs from the other groups in simple male legs, but with the mid tibia bearing a comb-like posteroventral row of blunt-ended bristles. It includes the Palaearctic Campsicnemus armatus (Zetterstedt, 1849), C. pumllio (Zetterstedt, 1843), C. vtorovi Negrobov et Zlobin, 1978, and C. caffer Curran, 1926, known from northern and southern Africa. C. armatusvar. desertiVaillant, 1953 (unavailable name) from Algeria is associated with C. caffer, which is now spread in the two zoogeographical Regions. New records are given for C. armatus, C. vtorovi and C. caffer. Modified couplets in a key to Palearctic species of Campsicnemus and a new key to Afrotropical species of the genus are provided. Photographs of male antenna and mid tibia of species of the Campsicnemus armatus group are published for the first time. Key words: Diptera, Dolichopodidae, Palaearctic Region, Afrotropical Region, Campsicnemus armatus species group, new records, key.
Introduction
The genus Campsicnemus Haliday in Walker et al., 1851, has an extremely high diversity of endemic species in the Hawaiian Islands and French Polynesia (Evenhuis, 2009; 2015), with more than 310 species worldwide (Grichanov, 2017a). Grichanov (1998; 2009) composed the last identification keys to the Afrotropical and Palaearctic species of Campsicnemus. C. armatus (Zetterstedt, 1849) was included into the both keys, as well as into the key to Campsicnemus males from Atlantic Ocean islands (Grichanov, 2012a). The last paper has proposed to consider the southern African C. caffer Curran, 1926 as a subspecies of the trans-Palaearctic C. armatus, which has also two very close Palaearctic species, i.e. the trans-Palaearctic C. pumilio (Zetterstedt, 1843) and C vtorovi Negrobov et Zlobin, 1978 known only from its type locality in Kyrgyzstan.
Grichanov (2012a) has described three new Afrotropical species of the genus and excluded C a. armatus and C atlanticus Dyte, 1980 from the Region. For this study, I have re-examined the recently published material on C armatus, C. caffer, C. pumilioand C. vtorovi (Grichanov, 2012b, 2017b; Grichanov et al., 2017; Grichanov, Bagachanova, 2018; Grichanov, Ovsyannikova, 2018) and provide new records. Modified couplets in a key to Palearctic species of Campsicnemus and a new key to Afrotropical species of the genus are also presented, and characters of the C armatusgroup of species are discussed and illustrated.
Material and methods
The material examined is housed at the National Museum, Bloemfontein, South Africa (BMSA), the Natal Museum, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa (NMSA), the Museum of Zoology, University of Lund, Sweden (MZLU), the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg, Russia (ZIN) and the Zoological Museum of Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia (ZMUM). The material published previously and collected from Iran, Russia (Arkhangelsk, Murmansk, Voronezh, Ulyanovsk Regions, Altai Territory, Yakutia), Sweden, South Africa has been re-examined (but not listed here).
Specimens were studied and photographed with a ZEISS Discovery V-12 stereo microscope and an AxioCam MRc5 camera. Morphological terminology and abbreviations follow Grichanov, Brooks (2017).

Discussion
The European authors (Parent, 1938; Negrobov, Stackelberg, 1969; d'Assis Fonseca, 1978; etc.) distinguished Campsicnemus armatus and C. pumilio (=C. pectinulatus) by the relative length of antennal postpedicel and the number of blunt bristles on mid tibia mainly. Negrobov & Zlobin (1978) described a new species C. vtorovi from mountains of Kyrgyzstan, comparing it with C. pectinulatus. C. vtorovi shares features of both C. armatus and C. pumilio, having elongate triangular postpedicel and comb-like row of blunt-ended bristles in basal half of mid tibia. This morphospecies was most probably overlooked in Europe until recently. All other characters used in those species descriptions and in keys seem to be variable, including colour of the legs (mostly yellow or mostly blackish femora and tibiae). Nevertheless, the number and length of posteroventral blunt-ended bristles are also variable in all the three species (see figs 9-18 and references below).
The most common species of the group, C. armatus and C. pumilio, have been often reported from the same countries (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, UK) and territories of Russia (Kamchatka, Karelia, Krasnoyarsk, Yakutia). This distributional pattern along with the variability of mid leg setation suggests that the two forms are both of one species. C. pumilio is also characterized by somewhat shorter antennal postpedicel, similar to that in C. caffer(see below), but this is also a variable character (figs 1 -8). Taking into the consideration the new records of the intermediate C. vtorovi in this paper, it cannot be regarded as a subspecies of either C. armatus or C. pumilio.
Curran (1926) distinguished his new species from C. armatus by the presence of only three dorsal bristles on mid tibia (four bristles are usually present in the other species of the group). However, the number, position, and length of these bristles seem to be variable. Most C. armatus specimens examined have mid tibia with four bristles (a pair of postero/anterodorsals on basal third and a pair of dorsals below). Nevertheless, at least one male and one female of the latter species from the Russian North (Nenetsia and Solovetskie Islands) have mid tibia with only three bristles (a pair of postero/anterodorsals on basal third and one dorsal below). Vaillant (1953) distinguished his central Saharan variety from the European specimens of C. armatus by entirely yellow bristles on fore coxa, and this character seems to be present in all Afrotropical specimens examined. The discovery of C. cafferin mountains of Ethiopia has allowed me to associate the desertivariety sensu Vaillant with this South-African species, rather than with C. armatus. The characters briefly described by Vaillant (1953) for the desertivariety are identical with those in C. caffer. The Palaearctic specimens of C. armatus, C. pumilio and C. vtorovi bear 2 to 6 black bristles on fore coxa, sometimes with addition of a few yellow or golden bristles. The number and length of ventral bristles on mid femur and tibia are variable in C. cafferas well. Generally, these bristles are somewhat weaker in C. caffer(as in C. pumilio and C. vtorovi), than in C. armatus. The antennal postpedicel of C. caffer males is shorter than that in males of C. armatus and C. vtorovi. In addition, C. armatus variety with dark or blackish femora and tibiae is not uncommon (see Parent, 1938), while the similar variety is yet unknown in C. caffer.
Species of the Campsicnemus armatus group seem to be rather variable in its wide area, being a multiregional polyzonal species or a complex of cryptic species distinguished poorly without molecular analysis. C. cafferhas a peculiar disjunctive area, occurring in southern (SAR and Namibia) and northern Africa (SE Algeria and Ethiopia). It is now spread formally in two zoogeographical Regions, though the species was reported in mountains of Algeria not far from the border with the Republic of the Niger. The nominotypical species C. armatus is distributed almost all over the boreal band of Palaearctic Region (except subtropics), inhabiting the banks of various water sources.
Campsicnemus as a whole is poorly represented in the Afrotropics, with three species on the continent and four species on the St. Helena, which were probably introduced to the Island by human. This is true for at least C. magius, mainly Mediterranean species. The continental African species of the genus have close relations with some groups of much richer Palaearctic fauna (with about 40 species).
