On + +D. cuprea + +( +Figs 16–20 +, +33–34 +, +43–44 +, +51–52 +, +55–56 +). + +Dollmania cuprea + +is spread from northeastern +RSA +northwards to central +Malawi +as it follows from the analysis of available barcodes (Prozorov +et al. +, 2023). The distribution area of + +D. cuprea + +includes the +type +locality of the Zimbabwean + +D. purpurascens +(Mutare, SMNH) + +and lays not very far from the +type +locality of the Zambian + +D. plinthochroa +(Baluba, NHMUK) + +. With the help of our colleagues, we obtained two more sequences from +Zambia +(Kasanka National Park, ANHRT) and +DRC +(Mikembo Reserve, CAC). They are not too far from the +type +locality of + +D. plinthochroa + +(199 and +193 km +accordingly) but distant from + +D. purpurascens + +(764 and +993 km +accordingly). Regardless the geographic distance, these two sequences are stored within the same BIN (BOLD:AAN4302) with other sequences of + +D. cuprea + +from +RSA +, +Mozambique +, and +Malawi +, having a maximum +p +-distance of 1.53% in COI-5P ( +Fig. 56 +). Lack of significant distinguishing morphologic characters, low genetic variation and wide distribution stand for considering all three taxa as one. Thus, we designate two new synonyms for + +D. cuprea +— +D. purpurascens + + +syn. n. + +and + +D. plinthochroa + + +syn. n. + + +Dollmania cuprea + +consequently has the widest distribution in the genus and includes: +RSA +, +Zimbabwe +, +Mozambique +, +Malawi +, +Zambia +, and +DRC +( +Fig. 55 +). + + +The northernmost find of + +D. cuprea + +(Vwaza Marsh Game Reserve, +Malawi +, CRM) is only +160 km +southwards from the +type +locality of + +D. reussi + +(Kilondo, northeastern coast of Lake +Malawi +, +Tanzania +, MfNB). That fact, together with the practical impossibility of the attribution of any Tanzanian specimen to either of + +D. reussi + +or + +D. marwitzi + +, stands for the importance of the barcoding of the primary +type +of, at least, + +D. reussi + +to understand the taxonomic relationship and geographic border between + +D. cuprea + +and the Tanzanian population.Also, an interesting fact is that not even one + +Dollmania + +specimen has been collected during a one-year long-term stationary expedition to the central Congolian lowland forests in +DRC +, from where, already 27 new species were reported ( + +Prozorov +et al. +, 2021 +a + +, 2021b, + +2023 +a + +, 2023b, +2023c +, +2023d +, +2023e +; + +Sulak +et al. +, 2024 + +; + +Tejuoso +et al. +, 2024 + +; + +Friend +et al. +, 2024 + +; + +Prozorov +et al +., 2024 +a + +, 2024b). + + +2. On the Tanzanian + +D. reussi + +and + +D. marwitzi + +( +Figs 12–15 +, +27–30 +, +41–42 +, +47–48 +, +54 +). + +Dollmania reussi + +and + +D. marwitzi + +were considered synonyms of the Zimbabwean + +D. purpurascens + +(see +Aurivillius, 1927 +). + +Dollmania purpurascens + +, in turn, proved to be a synonym of + +D. cuprea + +because of the genetic similarity (see Taxonomic note 1 above). The Tanzanian population of + +Dollmania + +is represented by the two externally undistinguishable sympatric lineages (see + +Prozorov +et al. +, 2023a + +), possibly representing + +D. reussi + +and + +D. marwitzi + +having a +p +-distance of 3.5–3.7% in COI-5P (BOLD:AAN4301 and BOLD:ABX5898), while both are 4.9–6.6% away from + +D. cuprea + +. Considering such a high genetic distance between + +D. cuprea + +and the Tanzanian populations, we raise + +D. reussi + + +stat. rev. + +and + +D. marwitzi + + +stat. rev. + +to the status of separate species until their primary +types +are barcoded and the taxonomic position of each is clarified. We illustrate a few of the specimens from +Kenya +( +Figs 12, 14–15 +, +40–41 +) which could be new records either for + +D. reussi + +or + +D. marwitzi +. + +However, their attribution is presently impossible. + + + + \ No newline at end of file
