Based on a phylogenetic analysis of a large number of mainly undescribed edaphic Entiminae from South Africa,
a new tribe of entimine weevils is described, which includes six new genera. Taxa included in Namaini trib. nov.
are clustered into seven clades that are used to delimit the following genera: Nama, type genus of the tribe, plus the
new genera Cederbergia gen. nov., Cervellaea gen. nov., Namaquania gen. nov., Pentamerica gen. nov.,
Springbokia gen. nov. and Yamalaka gen. nov. A key to the genera is given and four new species are described.
