Massa (2021a) highlighted that some specimens from Zambia do not belong to described species, but a more extensive study of long series of specimens should be necessary to establish the correct identification. Thus, thanks to the new material obtained from Zambia and Mozambique, presently it is possible to understand better the taxonomy of these east African specimens.
