Ropaloteres feisthameli ( Guérin-Méneville, 1849)
Geographic distribution: Senegal, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, Ghana, Sudan, People`s Republic of Congo, Uganda and Ethiopia.
Distribution in Guinea –Bissau: 6, 8, 10, 11B, 12, 19, 20, 23, 34, 36.
Specimens sampled: Coli (Quebo), 28.VI.2006, 1 ɗ, 1 Ψ, “BL”, ( AS).
Remarks: A species described from the old “ Guinea portugaise” ( Guérin-Méneville 1849), but recorded later to several countries of Africa. Like M. Bocandé (in Guérin-Méneville 1849) we found this species only once near the edges of an inland moor (Serrano 1995). Werner (2000b) claims that it is a forest species and he captured the adults through light trapping in Ethiopia, as happened with us in Guinea-Bissau.
