. The present forest species is known from
Sierra Leone
to
Angola
and
Uganda
and is now assigned for the first time to
Guinea-Bissau
, from where the genus was also unknown. Its confirmation in this country gives credibility to its reference from
Senegal
by Ackery
et al.
(2005), and questioned by Larsen (2005). The caterpillars feed on
Dalechampia
and
Tragia
(Euphorbiaceae)
.
