Comment number:   1
By:   Mervyn Mansell
Comment:   This species occurs in the north eastern parts of SA, extending into Botswana, Zimbabwe and Tanzania. Also well-known from the Kruger Park. Nothing is known about its biology. It was originally described from Kilimanjaro, so this is a very welcome addition!
