Debrona cervina Walker, 1870

http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid: Orthoptera .speciesfile.org:TaxonName:12552

Distribution: Tanzania, East Usambara Mountains and South Africa (Ragge 1968).

Habitat: Lowland evergreen forest in the East Usambara Mountains.

Remarks: D. habetata Karsch was described from the East Usambara Mountains and later synonymised by Kirby (1906) with D. cervina originally described from South Africa on a single female. Specimens of this species are rarely collected and further studies should be undertaken to show whether this beautiful Phaneropterinae is distributed across such a large area.
