Type locality: Democratic Republic of Congo, Kadjudju .

Comments: Although collected at the same locality as T. futilis , kivuensis is somewhat different.This is the only species of Tsacasiella with dark trochanters and brown-marked femora. These features may suggest a relationship with the two South African species of Caenoura , but the male genitalia are typical of Tsacasiella species.
