Anthia (s.str.) cinctipennis View in CoL actaeon Erichson, 1843

Distribution in Angola (Provinces): 1) Namibe; 2) Benguela.

Material examined. Lobito (12 ° 21´S, 13 ° 33´E, 10 m alt., 227/8) (BENGUELA), 20.III.1998, 2♀, 10.V.1998, 1♂, 1♀, PF, A. Neves leg., ASC; Biópio GoogleMaps ‒ Benguela (12 ° 27´38.17´´ S, 13 ° 44´02.92´´ E, 148 m alt., 228) (BENGUELA), 27.X.2013, 1♂, PF, R. Capela leg., ASC GoogleMaps .

Remarks. The nominal species has a wide distribution throughout central, southern and eastern Africa ( Angola, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia, Bostwana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique), but this subspecies is proper to South Angola and North Namibia ( Kleinfeld & Puchner 2012). Adult specimens were collected by pitfall trapping in the outskirts of Lobito (see also B. apicalis remarks) and near Biópio within open xeric bush in sandy soil. It is a new record for Benguela Province.
