Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Mervyn Mansell
Comment:   This species is endemic to Madagascar and does not occur in Africa, although it is quite closely related to some SA species. Seems to be fairly widespread in Madagascar, but of critical concern because of the devastating loss of habitat that is threatening most of Madagascar's unique taxa.
