Distribution: GBI, GUI, SEN.

Distribution in Guinea-Bissau (Administrative Regions): 1) BOL.

Historic records:

— Bolama (BOL) ( Janson 1907 sub Smaragdesthes smaragdima Voet v. blanda Burm. );

— Bubaque (BOL) ( Brivio 1958 sub Smaragdesthes africana blanda Burm. ).

Material examined: none.

Remarks. A subspecies restricted to the northern most tropical countries of West Africa ( Beinhundner 2017b; Schoolmeesters 2019).The records of the nominal subspecies and C. africana blanda for the same locality (Bubaque) in Guinea-Bissau by Brivio (1958) should be considered with some doubt.
