The Anthaxia (Haplanthaxia) mashuna Obenberger, 1931 species-group is de¿ ned, revised, keyed, and important diagnostic characters are illustrated. Additionally, four new species are described: Anthaxia (Haplanthaxia) convexi- ptera sp. nov. (Ethiopia, Tanzania, Zimbabwe), A. (H.) jendeki sp. nov. (Kenya), A. (H.) nigroaenea sp. nov. (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda), and A. (H.) puchneri sp. nov. (Angola). The lectotype of Anthaxia (H.) mashuna Obenberger, 1931 is designated. New country records and new host plants are given for Anthaxia (H.) ennediana Descarpentries & Mateu, 1965, A. (H.) mashuna, and A. (H.) patrizii Théry, 1938. Key words.

The number of species signi¿ cantly increased when DESCARPENTRIES & BRUNEAU DE MIRÉ (1963) and DESCARPENTRIES & MATEU (1965) published the results of the French expe- ditions to Tibesti and Ennedi, respectively.

    AFRICA ENNEDI MASSIF: NATURAL AND CULTURAL LANDSCAPE CHAD Aloba Arch - © IUCN Guy Debonnet Chad – Ennedi Massif: natural and cultural landscape WORLD HERITAGE NOMINATION – IUCN TECHNICAL EVALUATION ENNEDI MASSIF: NATURAL AND CULTURAL LANDSCAPE (CHAD) – ID No. 1475 IUCN RECOMMENDATION TO WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: To defer the extension under natural criteria. Key paragraphs of Operational Guidelines: Paragraph 77: Nominated property has potential to meet World Heritage criteria. Paragraph 78: Nominated property does not meet integrity or protection and management requirements. Explanatory note on boundaries of the nomination: The nominated area and buffer zone of the nominated property have been revised on two occasions in the course of the evaluation. The first changes occurred after the first request for supplementary information submitted by ICOMOS on 28 September 2015, and new maps were shared by the State Party to the ICOMOS Panel during their discussion on the nomination dossier on 28 November 2015. The core zone was mostly increased in the North-West and South-East, and the buffer zone was modified to surround the entire property, with a major addition to the West, when it was only covering a minor area around Fada in the original submission. This is referred to in the report as the “interim boundary” of the nomination and was not officially communicated to IUCN, and was not evaluated formally by the IUCN World Heritage Panel. The second set of changes occurred following the joint IUCN and ICOMOS progress report and request for supplementary information sent on 16 December 2015. The State Party responded to this letter on 25 February 2016 and submitted yet another map.
