Abstract	African species of the genus Menemerus SIMON, 1868 are revised. Altogether forty-three species have been treated, of which the following twenty-three are new to science: M. bifurcus, davidi, desertus, formosus, guttatus, insolidus, magnificus, manicus, meridionalis, minshullae, mirabilis, modestus, namibicus, natalis, pilosus, placidus, pulcher, regius, sabulosus, silver, transvaalicus, utilis, zimbabwensis. Five specific names are synonymised: M. bonetti SCHENKEL = M. bivittatus (DUFOUR), M. duvali BERLAND et MILLOT = M. eburnensis BERLAND et MILLOT, M. hypenetes LAWRENCE = M. congoensis LESSERT, M. interemptor O. P.-CAMBRIDGE = M. illigeri (SAVIGNY et AUDOUIN) and M. lesserti DENIS = M. fagei BERLAND et MILLOT. One new combination is proposed (M. carlini ex Mendoza carlini). Lectotypes for M. carlini and M. congolensis and a neotype for M. soldani are designated. M. dubius BERLAND et MILLOT, M. gesneri (SAVIGNY et AUDOUIN) M. hottentosus STRAND, M. hunteri (SAVIGNY et AUDOUIN), M. milloti DENIS and M. niger CAPORIACCO are regarded as nomina dubia. First descriptions of the males of M. eburnensis, fagei, illigeri and the female of M. congoensis are given. M. taeniatus and semilimbatus are recorded from Africa for the first time. A comparative analysis of the structure of copulatory organs within the genus is presented. A stridulatory apparatus found in males of five species is described. The identification key is provided.
