BRILLIANT RECORD! This is the first record of this species for the VM (as far as I know), and also the first record for Mpumalanga / Limpopo Province. The larva should be enough to confirm the ID as the adults look nearly identical to C.keithloa (red-tab policeman). This is probably a new foodplant as well. |
