The only specimens belonging to this species reported by Hayman et al. (1966: 64, map 96) were from the type locality in Haut-Uélé Province, northeastern DRC. There is one additional record from Tandala (Sud-Ubangi Province), northwestern DRC. The distribution map presented by Happold (2013w: 531) shows that the few known localities, where this species was found, are almost on a straight line reaching from southern Côte d’Ivoire, southern Ghana, Cameroon, northern DRC to southwestern Kenya.
