Diagnosis
Manzuma jocquei
is most similar in body coloration to
M. lympha
,
M. nigritibia
and
M. tanzanica
. The males can be distinguished from
M. tanzanica
by the well developed apical projection (ApP) (poorly developed in
M. tanzanica
) (cf.
Figs 57–58
,
64
and
190, 192
correspondingly). From
M. lympha
is can be distinguished by more robust ApP pointed dorsally in
M. jocquei
(
Figs 55
,
64
) while in
M. lympha
ApP smaller in size and pointed ventrally (
Fig. 111
). From
M. nigritibia
it can be distinguished by the coloration of the clypeus and cheeks. The upper half of the cheeks under ALEs are covered with short brown scales and the basal half of the cheeks are covered with long white hairs (
Figs 75–77
) while in
M. nigritibia
the clypeus has a diamond-shaped patch of brown hairs between AME and on the upper half of clypeus, the cheeks are covered with long white hairs from ALEs to margin of carapace (
Figs 145, 147
). The females cannot be distinguished from
M. lympha
and
M. nigritibia
but can be distinguished from
M. botswana
gen. et sp. nov.
and
M. petroae
gen. et sp. nov.
by the absence of white stripes of scales running from the outer rim of AME’s to the lateral sides of carapace (cf.
Figs 82
,
129
,
152
,
44
and
180
correspondingly).

and
Central African Republic

Comments
The female from
Central African Republic
is provisionally assigned to
Manzuma jocquei
gen. et comb.nov.
This female seems to belong to another, undescribed
Manzuma
species occurring in Central Africa. Males collected together with the females from Central Africa are required to resolve this problem.
