Genetta angolensis Bocage 1882 View in CoL , J. Sci. Math. Phys. Nat. Lisboa, ser. 1, 9: 29.

Type Locality: "Calcuimba" [placed in Angola, Caconda (13°47'S, 15°08'E)]. GoogleMaps

Vernacular Names: Angolan Genet.

Synonyms: Genetta hintoni Schwarz 1929 ; Genetta mossambica Matschie 1902 .

Distribution: Angola, Dem. Rep. Congo, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Crawford-Cabral (1970) argued that mossambica should be considered a synonym of angolensis , but later ( Crawford-Cabral and Pacheco, 1992) changed and placed mossambica in zambesiana (= maculata ). Crawford-Cabral and Fernandes (1999) considered " mossambica " specimens--as identified by Roberts (1951) distinct from mossambica Matschie, 1902 , and therefore constituting a separate species closely related to maculata .
