Hayman et al. (1966: 44–45, map 51) only mentioned specimens from the northeastern part of the DRC (provinces of Nord-Kivu, Haut-Uélé, Bas-Uélé and Tshopo). Here, we report on additional specimens from over almost the entire northern part of the DRC, and down along the Congo River to Kinshasa. The SDM map is very similar to the one presented by Fahr (2013d: 381), although we do believe that there is a connection between the populations from the DRC and those from Gabon and Cameroon (see also ACR 2016: 172).
