Coleophora elea Baldizzone & Huemer, sp. nov., is described based on specimens collected from the Peloponnese peninsula (Greece). This species is closely related to C. oriolella Zeller, 1849, but it differs in external appearance and in characters of the male and female genitalia. Additionally, the two species are genetically distinct as evidenced by a p-distance of approximately 4% between their DNA barcodes (cytochrome c-oxidase subunit 1). Adult specimens and the genitalia of both species are illustrated for comparative purposes.

This work presents the description of 6 new species of the genus Coleophora Hbner from Zimbabwe, Uganda, Ethiopia, Angola, Kenya, and Oman: Coleophora nyangae, sp. nov.,Coleophora kibalensis, sp. nov., Coleophora arcana, sp. nov., Coleophora angolana, sp. nov., Coleophora kinangopensis, sp. nov., Coleophora fracta, sp. nov.

This work presents the description of 16 new species of the genus Coleophora Hbner from the Republic of South Africa: Coleophora animula sp. nov., C. parvula sp. nov., C. coniella sp. nov., C. afrobrunnea sp. nov., C. rocherpanensis sp. nov., C. comparata sp. nov., C. richtersveldi sp. nov., C. incomparabilis sp. nov., C. dixella sp. nov., C. cederbergensis sp. nov., C. curviphallica sp. nov., C. notabilis sp. nov., C. quaggaefontis sp. nov., C. tabulensis sp. nov., C. intricata sp. nov., C. transvaalensis sp. nov. A checklist of the 71 species currently known for South Africa is provided.

The paper deals with ten species of Afrotropical Coleophoridae from South Africa and Swaziland. For one previously described species, Coleophora halmodes Meyrick, 1911 a lectotype is designated and the genitalia are illustrated for the first time. Nine new species of Coleophora Hübner, 1822 are described: C. stenoptera, sp. nov., C. swaziella, sp. nov., C. armata, sp. nov., C. suavis, sp. nov., C. venusta, sp. nov., C. hirtella, sp. nov., C. deinosella, sp. nov., C. intorta, sp. nov., C. leptella, sp. nov.

This work presents a review of the Coleophoridae of Central and Eastern Africa. A lectotype is designated for Coleophora psychropa Meyrick, 1920, and the male genitalia of C. crossanthes Meyrick, 1938, are illustrated for the first time. Coleophora sabaea Baldizzone, 2007, previously known only from Yemen, is added to the African fauna. Nine new species of Coleophora Hübner, 1822 are described: C. schouteni sp. nov., C. giustii, sp. nov., C. centrafricana sp. nov., C. riftella sp. nov., C. camerunensis sp. nov., C. ensifera sp. nov., C. gilgilensis sp. nov., C. nyanzaensis sp. nov., C. silvestris sp. nov.

Coleophora meridiogallica sp. n., a new species detected as a result of a DNA study, is described and compared with C. meridionella Rebel, 1912 with which it was confused. The new species whose larvae feed on Silene saxifraga is known only from a few departments of southeastern France.

Coleophora ericarnella Baldizzone, n. sp. is described from the East-Central Alps region (Italy and Slovenia). It belongs to the C. pyrrhulipennella group. Its larval host plant is Erica carnea (Ericaceae). The adult habitus and genitalia as well as its larval case are illustrated and compared with those of Coleophora pulchripennella Baldizzone, 2011 and C. pyrrhulipennella Zeller, 1849. DNA barcodes also distinguish all three species from each other in congruence with genitalia morphology.

Coleophora sabina sp. nov. is described from Italian mainland. Habitus of the adult and the genitalia of both sexes are illustrated. The species is compared especially to C. fringillella Zeller, 1839. DNA barcodes are shown to be distinct and congruent with morphological differences.

Eight new species of the genus Coleophora Hübner, 1822 are described: Coleophora kenyaensis sp. nov., C. vansoni sp. nov., C. elegans sp. nov., C. namaqua sp. nov., C. kamiesella sp. nov., C. kunenensis sp. nov., C. creola sp. nov., and C. hirsutella sp. nov. The genitalia of three previously described species are described and illustrated for the first time: Coleophora niphocrossa Meyrick, 1920, C. enchitis Meyrick, 1920 and C. textoria Meyrick, 1921. The larval case of C. enchitis is illustrated and data about its biology are given.

Coleophoranepetellae Baldizzone & Nel, sp. n. is described from the southern Alps (Italy and France). It belongs to the Coleophoralixella species group. Its host plants are Nepetanepetella L. (Lamiaceae) and an unidentified Poaceae. The fifth instar larva, its case, the adult habitus, and genitalia are illustrated. The species is compared to Coleophoranevadella Baldizzone, 1985, here newly confirmed from France and whose larvae feed on Nepetalatifolia DC. in the Eastern Pyrénées. DNA barcodes are shown to be distinct and congruent with morphological differences among species of the lixella group. Barcodes revealed that Coleophoratricolor Walsingham, 1889, formerly known only from Great Britain, is also present in France and Greece.
