Material examined. MOZAMBIQUE : Tete : leg. C.F. Roewer , 1♂ ( SMF 9695 A) . Description. For a description of both sexes see Azarkina (2009) . Palpal organ as in Fig. 45A, B . Distribution. Hitherto known from western Africa, recorded from Cameroon , Ivory Coast and Nigeria . This is the first record from southern Africa. Remarks. The single male specimen recorded has a palpal morphology most similar to Saraina deltshevi Azarkina, 2009 , particularly the dorsally directed dorsal tibial apophysis, but differs slightly in the position of the ventral and medial apophyses, which are in the same plane in lateral view ( Fig. 45B ), whereas the medial apophysis of S. deltshevi is slightly more proximally placed on the tibia ( Azarkina 2009 : fig. 3). However, we refrain from describing this as a new species until the female can be discovered.
