Remarks — This species was known only from its type series collected from Oenomys hypoxanthus (Pucheran) ( Rodentia : Muridae ) and P. fallax in Luberizi. Here it is recorded outside the type locality, in Rwanda and D on. incomtus for the first time. According to the database of US National Geospatial Intelligence Agency, there are 30 geographic objects (populated places and streams) in Rwanda with the name Gakoma; thus, exact coordinates of this collection locality remain unknown.
