A species described and known only from Zambia ( Schüle & Heins 2013 ). The single female specimen was checked with one female paratype of this species. There is another species within this genus reported to Angola ( A . mulsanti mulsanti Perroud, 1847 ) which presents a larger distribution throughout central, southern and eastern Africa) ( Háva & Hovorka 2007 , Kleinfeld & Puchner 2012 ).
