Madagaskar, Majunga. Insula Makambi in sinu Boeni. More than one ♀ .

The MHNG collection has a series of one Ƌ and eight ♀, but none of them can be positively identified as syntypes because the data labels are too generalised. The type material, from Voeltzkow’s expedition, ought to be in the SMFD. Box U 7 .
