Anisorrhina (Anisorrhina) hassoni subsp. hassoni hassoni Antoine 2000

Description

Anisorrhina (Anisorrhina) hassoni hassoni Antoine, 2000

(Fig. 17b)

Distribution: ANG.

Distribution in Angola (Provinces): 1) CUS.

Historic records:

— Angola (without locality) (CUS) (Antoine 2000).

Material examined: Angola, 1 ♀, Nº 1907 (blue label), old collection, box nº IX-78, MZUC.

Remarks. A species known from Angola, but Antoine (2000) postulated that some minor specimens from Rwanda and Tanzania could belong also to this species. Curiously, this was corroborated by Beinhundner (2014a) which described a new subspecies (A. hassoni sexmaculata) of this species from Tanzania. No ecological data are available for this species. See also the remarks under Anisorrhina (Anisorrhina) flavomaculata.
