Treatment

Distribution: ANG (?), SLN, STP.

Distribution in Angola (Provinces): 1)?

Historic records:

— Angola (without locality) ( Paulino de Oliveira 1882 sub Heterorrhina viridicyanea P. Beauv. ).

Material examined: none.

Remarks. The species was probably misinterpreted by Paulino de Oliveira (1882) with Chlorocala africana africana or even with C. africana mutica . It is known from Sierra Leone and Príncipe Island ( Krajcik 2008a; Beinhundner 2017a) and it is with some doubts that we include this species in the Angolan entomofauna.
