Cylindrocranius errans Peringuey 1896

Description

* Cylindrocranius errans Péringuey, 1896

Distribution in Angola (Provinces): 2) Luanda.

Material examined. Barra do Cuanza (09° 18´55.42´´ S, 13° 09´58.57´´ E, 11 m alt., 107) (LUANDA), 28.IV.2014, 2♀, LT, A. Serrano & R. Capela leg., ASC.

Remarks. A species known until now from Botswana and Namibia (Insectoid.info 2017). Adult specimens fit very well the original description and are similar to a specimen from Namibia [South of Walvis Bay, "Musee Royal de l’Afrique Centrale (Belgium, Tervuren)”] and determined by P. Basilewsky (in Anichtchenko 2016). Adults were collected by light trapping close to River Cuanza within a riparian forest together with one ant nest beetle [Carabidomemnus (Carabidodoxus) sp.] and two ground beetles (D. picicornis and M. guineensis). It is a new species record for Angola.
