Description
* Clivina capensis Kult, 1959
Distribution in Angola (Provinces): 2) Bié.
Material examined. Satchijamba (10 km E) (13° 43´38.76´´ S, 17° 12´17.74´´ E, 1601 m alt., 283) (BIÉ), 7.IV.2014, 1♀, VM, A. Serrano & R. Capela leg., ASC.
Remarks. A species only reported to South Africa (Cape Province) (Kult 1959). The specimen was identified using Kult`s (1959) key, taking into account that our specimen is dark ferruginous, shining (elytra without microsculture), with frons impunctate, proepisternae finely punctate, protibiae sulcate with 3rd spine almost indistinct, prothorax with transverse wrinkles and group of punctures on each side and mesotibiae without denticle. The unique feature that does not agree with C. capensis description is the antennal antenomers 4 to10: moniliform in C. capensis, but subelongate in our specimen. For the present, we consider that this specimen belongs to this species with some reserves. The single female specimen was found in open secondary forest and collected by means of light trapping. It is a new species record for Angola.
