* Lophorrhina quinquelineata (Fabricius, 1781)

( Figs. 23f, g )

Distribution: ANG, BEN, CAM, CON, DOC, GHA, GUI, RCI, SEN, SLN.

Distribution in Angola (Provinces): 2) CUS.

Historic records: none.

Material examined: Mussende (9º 57´00´´ S, 14º 47´36´´ E, 905 m alt., 128) ( CUS), 30.XI.2015, 1♂, 1♀, 2.XI.2015, 1♂, 1♀, 5.XI.2015, 1♀, BT, 28.XI.–5.XII.2015, 6♂, CT, A. Serrano & R. Capela leg., ASC; Calulo (Fazenda Klein) (10º 02´14´´ S, 14º 54´38´´ E, 1059 m alt., 147) ( CUS), 8.XII.2017, 1♀, 11.XII.2017, 2♂, 2♀, LT, 6–11.XII.2017, 38♂, 12♀, CT, A. Serrano & R. Capela leg., ASC; Calulo (Faz. Monte Café) (09º 59´15´´ S, 14º 50´12´´ E, 1086 m alt., 128) ( CUS), 6–11.XII.2017, 13♂, 1♀, CT, A. Serrano & R. Capela leg., ASC .

Remarks. According to Allard (1985), it is another common species. Beinhundner (2015) listed all the Lophorrhina species with its general distribution, recording L. quinquelineata for Angola, but without any precise locality or reference. Paulino de Oliveira (1882) eventually misinterpreted L. penthacordia with C. quinquelineata . This species is very abundant in Calulo region (see material examined) and adult specimens were sampled by means of BT and CT (e.g. Figs. 1a, b ) in secondary moist forest (e.g. Fig. 1f ). See also the remarks under Diplognatha silicea , Chlorocala africana mutica and C. inermis . Tchibozo et al. (2008), Touroult & Le Gall (2013) and Joly (2018) provided biodiversity information (abundance, habitat preference) of this species for Benin and Ghana, respectively. Without any accurate published locality information in Angola, we consider that it is a new species record for this country and to the Kwanza Sul Province.
