Euprepes albilabris Hallowell, 1857: 51 View in CoL .

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — 24 specimens: Togo. Kebo-Dzigbe, ZMB 77948-77952, RMCA A7.036.R.0042-0052.

Guinea. MNHN 1943.41, 1951.0090, 1951.0095, 1951.0099, 1951.0155, 1967.225, 1967.245 and 1967.248.

HABITATS AND DISTRIBUTION. — Five specimens from Kebo-Dzigbe (Agou Mountains) were collected and deposited in ZMB during his study. This is the first record of this species for Togo. In Togo, it seems confined to the mountain forests of ecological zone II. Its presence in Badou and Adélé, which are mountain forest areas close to the Ghana border, is probable.
