A survey of seed chalcids from woody plants in Kenya revealed 12 species belonging to the genus    Megastigmus    Dalman, 1820, and has increased to 16 the number of    Megastigmus    species presently recorded from the Afrotropical Region, of which at least 13 are seed feeders. A key to female    Megastigmus    of the Afrotropical Region is provided. Eight new species are described from morphological evidence:    Megastigmus   lanneae    Roques &amp; Copeland,    Megastigmus   laventhali    Roques &amp; Copeland,    Megastigmus   ozoroae    Roques &amp; Copeland, and    Megastigmus   smithi    Roques &amp; Copeland in seeds of species of the family   Anacardiaceae  ,    Megastigmus   copelandi    Roques &amp; Copeland and    Megastigmus   grewianae    Roques &amp; Copeland in seeds of   Malvaceae  ,    Megastigmus   helinae    Roques &amp; Copeland in seeds of   Rhamnaceae  , and    Megastigmus   icipeensis    Roques &amp; Copeland for which no host is known. These collections include the first records of   Malvaceae   and   Rhamnaceae   as hosts of    Megastigmus    seed chalcids, which appear to have radiated in Angiosperms much more than previously considered. Analyses of the mitochondrial (   cytochrome oxidase subunit one –   COI ) and nuclear DNA (28S ribosomal region) could be carried out on 8 of the 16 African species of which 5 were newly described ones. The species associated with   Anacardiaceae   always clustered together in phylogenies, confirming the existence of a strong and ancestral monophyletic clade, unlike the ones associated with   Malvaceae   and   Rhamnaceae  , whose position remains unclear. All holotypes are deposited in the National Museums of Kenya.
