<paragraph pageId="7" pageNumber="104">This species is widespread in the Afrotropical realm, extending from east Africa to Yemen and south to the north of South Africa. The color of the female antenna is variable: the scape is yellow to light brown, but in some specimens is dark brown to black (OSUC 207985, 207972; Figs 7, 11). The color variability is also seen on the legs: coxae are dark brown to black, otherwise the legs are yellow throughout in most specimens, but in some the hind femur is dark brown (OSUC 207985, 207954, 207955).</paragraph>
