). According to JMD, the term “Sandberge” is a misreading of [Graben-] “Randberge” (“rift-flank mountains”), a term used to describe where many other specimens were collected by Rudolf Grauer in the same area around the same time. The capital letters “S” and “R” are similar to each other in the style of German handwriting used at that time known as Kurrentschrift. All other specimens collected by Grauer have the locality as “Randberge.” One of the few localities in that area specified by Grauer is “Ugoma,” which is where he collected one of the

This species occurs in a disjunct distribution with relatively low intraspecific genetic diversity between allopatric populations. If populations are not discovered from intervening sites, perhaps there were forested connections that have been lost, or fluctuations in the historical water levels of the crater lakes led to population-level losses, which produced the disjunct distribution currently observed.
