M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d: Egypt: 1 ex., Beni Suef, El Shanawaya, 25.VI.1995, leg. Ullrich (MHNG).

C o m m e n t: Originally described in Cephisus, this species was subsequently attributed to Acanthoglossa ( COIFFAIT 1984, SMETANA 2004). Based on the morphology of the male sexual characters (see figures 41 bis I-J in COIFFAIT 1984), it is a close relative of, and doubtlessly congeneric with Acanthoglossa orientis . The species has become known only from Egypt.
