Neacidiophora brevifalcata Koch, 1998

(Fig. 17 A–B)

Neacidiophora brevifalcata Koch, 1998b: 97 . Locus typicus: Ethiopia, Meisso. Holotype: ♂. Ethiopia, Meisso [= Mieso, 09°13'N 040°45'E], VIII.[19]45, leg. K. M. Guichard (BMNH).

Ethiopian material. Dire Dawa [09°35'N 041°50'E], 6000 ft, 17.IV.1946 (1 ♂), leg. K. M. Guichard; Nech Sar N. P., 05°58’N 037°35’E, 1110 m, 19.IX.2012, P3631 (1 ♂), leg. J.-L.- Boevé & A. Pauly (RBINS). Distribution. Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania.

Remarks. In the specimen from the Nech Sar N. P. the second and third anal vein (2A+3A) of the fore wing are nearly obliterated. This characteristic is known for N. brevifalcata and illustrated by Koch (1998b: fig. 36), and it can cause specimens to be misidentified as belonging to Distega. Neacidiophora brevifalcata is known only from the male.
