An Angolan endemic species described based on one male and one female specimens from Caconda (

).
Allard (1991)
considered this taxon as a subspecies of
Caelorrhina barthi
, a criterion not followed by
Krajcik (2008a)
(but see New localities reported). No ecological data are available for this species. It is a new record for the
Huíla Province
.
