Historically Panaspis wahlbergi (Smith, 1849) has been the only assignable species present in Kenya. Recent studies have shown that it comprises multiple cryptic species and the nominal species is now restricted to southern Africa. Newly collected mitochondrial data (16S rRNA) helped to resolve the status of the Kenyan populations, which revealed the presence of two distant related species. Pairwise distances show average 5.87% differences between the two Kenyan species, and 3.58-5.27% and 8.62-9.15% to nominal P. wahlbergi and P. maculicollis Jacobsen Broadley, 2000 respectively. Ablepharus massaiensis Angel, 1924 was described from the Maasai plains near Nairobi, but has long been considered a junior synonym of P. wahlbergi. We herein resurrect Panaspis massaiensis comb. nov. as a valid species and describe a new species, Panaspis tsavoensis sp. nov. from the Tsavo Conservation Area in south-eastern Kenya. Morphological examinations of specimens reveal minor differences from each other as well as nominal forms of P. wahlbergi and P. maculicollis. Panaspis massaiensis comb. nov. shares with the P. wahlbergi group a white ventrolateral stripe but can be distinguished by the presence of 26 midbody scale rows versus 24. Panaspis tsavoensis sp. nov. on the other hand, lacks the white ventrolateral stripe, most similar to the P. maculicollis group but differs in that P. maculicollis breeding males have a black patch on the neck with diagonal rows of white spots. Panaspis massaiensis comb. nov. is widespread in the Kenyan and northern Tanzanian highlands, isolated dryland montane forests and rocky hills, while P. tsavoensis sp. nov. occur in the expansive arid lowlands of Tsavo Conservation Area and should be present in similar arid lowlands in northern Kenya as well as in adjacent Tanzania.

历史上Panaspis wahlbergi(史密斯,1849年)一直是肯尼亚唯一可分配的物种。最近的研究表明,它包括多种隐性物种,现在名义物种仅限于南部非洲。最新收集的线粒体数据(16S rRNA)帮助解决了肯尼亚种群的状况,这揭示了两个远缘相关物种的存在。成对距离显示两种肯尼亚物种之间的平均差异为5.87%,与名义P. wahlbergi和P. maculicollis Jacobsen Broadley(2000年)的差异分别为3.58-5.27%和8.62-9.15%。内罗毕附近的马赛平原描述了Ablepharus massaiensis Angel,1924年,但长期以来一直被认为是P. wahlbergi的初级同义词。我们在此复活马来松马齿asp梳。十一月 作为有效物种并描述了新物种Panaspis tsavoensis sp.。十一月 来自肯尼亚东南部的察沃保护区。标本的形态学检查显示彼此之间的微小差异以及P. wahlbergi和P. maculicollis的名义形式。马尼卡纳斯(Panaspas massaiensis)梳子。十一月 与P. wahlbergi组共有白色腹侧条纹,但可以通过26个中体标尺行与24个中体标尺行的区别来区分。十一月 另一方面,缺少白色腹外侧条纹,与斑节对虾组最相似,但不同之处在于斑节对虾的繁殖雄性在脖子上有一个黑色斑块,对角排成一排白色斑点。马尼拉浮游生物梳子。十一月 P. tsavoensis sp。分布在肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚北部的高地,偏僻的旱地山地森林和岩石山丘上。十一月
