Forty-eight species belonging to twenty-nine genera were identified, including two new genera, Bonagmene gen. n. and gen. n., and thirty-one new species: Acroclita celaeno sp. n., Bactra alcyone sp. n., Bonagmene eburnea sp. n., Camptrodoxa pusilla sp. n., Camptrodoxa splendens sp. n., Coniostola cinereocostalis sp. n., Cosmetra maia sp. n., Cydia albimacula sp. n., Dasodisfalcata sp. n., Dolichohedya fulgens sp. n., Eccopsis atrobasalis sp. n., Eccopsis luteicaput sp. n., Eccopsis rubiginosa sp. n., Epichoristodes aequatorialis sp. n., Epichoristodes ivindoensis sp. n., Eucosmocydia ipassaensis sp. n., Gaboncydia gabonensis sp. n., Gnathodracon durantei sp. n., Gnathodracon massaronei sp. n., Gnathodracon merope sp. n., Gnathodracon pavesii sp. n., Hilarographa brazzaella sp. n., Megalota roseoeffusa sp. n., Megalota sterope sp. n., Megalota taygete sp. n., Nepheloploce electra sp. n., Prophaecasia gabonana sp. n., Sanguinograptis rubidissecta sp. n., Syntozyga pulchella sp. n., Thylacogaster albistrigulata sp. n., Thylacogaster ornata sp. n. The following new combinations and new synonymies are proposed: Basigonia anisorrhopa (DIAKONOFF, 1983) comb. n., Amabrana acanthoda (RAZOWSKI & WOJTUSIAK, 2015) comb. n., Amabrana bendelana (RAZOWSKI & WOJTUSIAK, 2015) comb.n., Amabrana primaria (RAZOWSKI, 2015) comb. n., Amabrana subseparata (RAZOWSKI, 2015) comb. n., Prophaecasia usambarae (RAZOWSKI & WOJTUSIAK, 2014) comb. n., Prophaecasia usambarae (RAZOWSKI & WOJTUSIAK, 2014) = P. malaviana HEPPNER & BAE, 2017 syn. n., Basigonia anisorrhopa (DIAKONOFF, 1983) = Basigonia anisoscia DIAKONOFF, 1983 syn. n.
