) and biology:Although there are few records beyond South African borders, this is a fairly widely distributed species that is likely to be found at many places throughout the eastern parts of Africa. The species has been collected during every month from October to April (
<tableCitation id="C698033BE840584EFD3DA9A0FCC9FE45" box="[767,849,458,484]" captionStart="TABLE 1" captionStartId="4.[616,691,204,225]" captionTargetBox="[197,1115,280,622]" captionTargetId="graphics@4.[181,1141,268,629]" captionText="TABLE 1 Phenology of Congomochtherus species.

) and so it can be said with certainty that this is a summer-active asilid. I have collected this species on no fewer than 12 occasions and can testify to the fact that individuals are invariably found resting on rocks in and along streams and rivers. One such locality, in the scenic Drakensberg Mountains, is pictured here (
<figureCitation id="13212A05E840584EFDC1AA20FDD3FDC5" box="[515,587,586,612]" captionStart="Fig. 2" captionStartId="5.[144,177,933,955]" captionTargetBox="[151,1096,204,912]" captionTargetId="figure@5.[151,1096,204,913]" captionTargetPageId="5" captionText="Fig. 2.

). They are active fliers, which makes collection difficult (without falling into the water or getting the net drenched). My experience is backed up by a number of other collectors in the information provided on labels. Although some labels suggest that individuals may have been collected on vegetation, this is probably unlikely as I have not encountered them resting on vegetation (apart from dead twigs amongst riverine rocks). Interestingly enough, the species appears to be at home along rivers running through highly developed suburban places in the greater Johannesburg area, where streams are probably somewhat polluted. Little biological information is available.
