Chonocephalus kiboshoensis Brues

Chonocephalus kiboshoensis Brues, 1907: 410 . Sp. indet.

With the loss of the holotype female from Tanzania (German East Africa, Kibosho) and in the light of present knowledge of the taxonomically significant features in this genus, a reliable diagnosis of this species cannot be obtained from the original description. The common species of East Africa is C. heymonsi (e.g. Disney & Darlington, 1998). However, the relative sizes of the eyes and third antennal segments of C. kiboshoensis, as stated by Brues, are incompatible with it being conspecific with C. heymonsi . I therefore formally declare C. kiboshoensis to be a species indeterminata.
