Comment : The new records represent the second ( M’Pupa Falls ) and third (near village Sashae ) for Naja mossambica in Angola. The only other published Angolan record ( Maconjo , Broadley 1974) occurs in south-west Angola , although other western records are known ( Branch et al. in prep.). This species is expected to be more widely distributed in southern Angola.
