Labels of the following imagoes were not archived in full due to the short-term nature of museum visits, although we suggest mentioning them: KENYA : 5♂ , 1♀ , [former] Coast Prov., Malindi (DNHM); 4♂ , Gede, Arabuko Sokoke National Reserve (DNHM).

Rhodesia (NHMZ). Earliest and newer collection sites are marked on the conclusive map ( Fig. 35 ). Biology. In Prozorov, 2011 flying period is a mosaic: January, February, April, May, July, October, and December. Here we add March, August, September and November. Thus, only specimens collected in June are not yet known but it is more likely that T. longipennis is polyvoltine and flies the whole year round. The species is collected in tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests (Guinean montane, western Guinean lowland, central Congolian lowland, northeast Congolian lowland, Albertine Rift montane and northern Swahili coastal forests ecoregions) and tropical and subtropical grasslands, savannas and shrublands (central Zambezian wet miombo woodlands and dry miombo woodlands ecoregions) ( Dinerstein et al., 2017 ).
