Remarks. The species presents a scattered distribution in Africa ( Krajcik 2008a; Beinhundner 2017a). It is known for Angola, but without precise localities for the majority of records ( Paulino de Oliveira 1882; Moser 1916; Ferreira 1965). Eventually, “Loanza” name was a spelling mistake by Moser (1916) for “ Luanda ”.
