Tetraconcha longipes ( Bolivar, 1893) Fig. 82

Bolívar I., 1893. Ann. Soc. ent. Fr. 62: 178.

Type locality.

-Assinie (Ivory Coast).

Material examined.

-Ivory Coast, Assinie (♀ holotype) (MNCN).

Remarks and distribution.

-Only the female is known from Assinie (Ivory Coast) ( Bolívar 1893, 1906). The ratio length/width of tegmina is 3.4. Chopard (1954) also recorded one female from Mt. Nimba (Ivory Coast). However, since now new species are recorded from Ivory Coast it is doubtful that the specimen from Mt Nimba is conspecific with T. longipes (see section on female characters). According to Bolívar (1893) this species has small blackish spots along the veinlets of tegmina and the ovipositor is 2.5 mm long.
