Taxonomy Comments

'The species was originally described from German East Africa (Tanzania), but had not been found in Africa again since the description (Schedl 1963). However, a recent (November 2013) collection from mangroves in South Africa (R. A. Beaver, unpublished) shows that it is is still present on the African continent. It is evidently an Oriental species introduced to Africa through human agency.' (Beaver et al 2014:46)
