Material examined
SMF 79.441 ( Rwanda ), SMF 79.442 (DR Congo, Kivu region , Centre de Recherche en Sciences Naturelles, 850 m a.s.l.); FMNH 167775- 776, male ( Gabon) , FMNH 108168, male ( Sudan), FMNH 83599, male ( Angola), FMNH 165170-171, male ( Uganda), FMNH 152767, male ( Kenya), BMNH 1904.2.8.1 (holotype), SMF 79441-442 ( DR Congo) .
Comments
The species occurs from Cameroon and Angola eastwards to Kenya ( Fahr, 2013). Chromosome number of a specimen from DR Congo was: 2n = 30, aFN = 56 ( Volleth et al., 2001). This is the smallest species of the genus ( Tables 3 and 4).
