Distribution. Eastern Africa (Ragge 1980)
Altitudinal range at Mt Kilimanjaro: 900–1100 m.
Habitat. Tree savanna at the foothills of Mt Kilimanjaro; prefers Acacia trees where males start their calling song at the later afternoon and early night hours.
Records: 2
Remarks. The holotype is remarkably larger than the specimens collected on Mt Kilimanjaro. Studies on habitat and song are necessary to shed light on the Diogena species complex .
