Distribution in Angola (Provinces): 1) Lunda Norte, Huambo, Bié.

Material examined. Satchijamba-Somakwanza (13° 44° 46.50°´S, 17° 11° 2.26´´ E, 1611 m alt., 303) (BIÉ), 2.XI.2014, 2♂, LT, A. Serrano & R. Capela leg., ASC .

Remarks. A species with a scattered known distribution in Africa ( Angola, Zambia, Tanzania) ( Facchini 2012a). It was described recently by Facchini (2012a) and our adult specimens fit very well its description, including the aedeagus features. Adult specimens were collected by light trapping within an open secondary forest together with some other ground and ant nest beetles (e.g. P. vanrooni , P. chappuisi , M. guineensis , A. monardianus , Stenolophus sp.).
