Coccothera quadropunctata spec. nov., Coccothera cipollana spec. nov., Coccothera bvumbana spec. nov. and Coccothera kingstoni spec. nov. Diagnostic characters are illustrated and described. Type localities are illustrated. Distributional information of each species is presented and discussed. The biology of the species are not known except for the collecting dates and localities. 

In Africa south of the Sahara 62 valid species of the family Ethmiidae are recognised to date. Four new species are described from localities in Ethiopia, Djibouti, Uganda, Namibia and South Africa: Ethmia angensteini spec. nov. (Ethiopia), Ethmia hermannstaudei spec. nov. (Namibia, RSA), Ethmia kibalensis spec. nov. (Uganda), and Ethmia stadieana spec. nov. (Djibouti). The moths of the new species and some of their close relatives are illustrated in colour. The male and female genitalia are depicted as line drawings and as photos. The systematic position of the new species is briefly discussed. New faunistic records of scarcely collected species are communicated from several African countries.

A new monotypic genus Afreuclasta with its type species: Afreuclasta ruwenzoriensis sp. nov. is described from East Africa. The genus is placed in the Pyraustinae, Euclastini, and its generic placement is discussed.
