Records.
N’Dolondolo [- 13.8004, 13.1362, 897 m] (UF 187250, 187251; INBAC / AMB 10344); Maylowe [- 13.8342, 13.2767, 803 m] (UF 190275).
Comments.
Endemic to southwestern Africa from southwestern Angola southwards through Namibia to the arid regions of northern South Africa (Marques et al. 2018; Channing and Rödel 2019). In Angola, P. annectens is restricted to the coastal lowlands of the country (Marques et al. 2018). The species is frequently associated with inselbergs and other rocky outcrops in arid regions (Channing 2001; Channing and Rödel 2019). Our specimens were found inside crevices at the base of Serra da Neve. Ceríaco et al. (2021) discussed the taxonomic and nomenclatural history of P. annectens and provided an additional record for the country.
