Lophyra (Stenolophyra) infuscatula (W. Horn, 1915) View in CoL

Distribution in Angola (provinces): 1) Malanje, Benguela, Huambo, Huíla; 2) Bié.

Material examined: Cachingues‒Chipica (coord.: 13º 10´15.74´´ S, 16º 45´48.17´´ E, 1649 m alt., 281) ( BIÉ), 1.XI.2014, 1♂, DO, A. Serrano leg., ASC; Kakande (coord.: 12º 42´50.73´´ S, 16º 45´33.19´´ E, 1716 m alt., 233) ( BIÉ), 4.XI.2014, 2♂, DO, A. Serrano leg., ASC.

Remarks. A species known from Angola, D. R. of the Congo and Tanzania ( Werner 2000b). The adults were found beneath the herbaceous vegetation in the edges of countryside roads within savanah (Cachingues-Chipica) or open secondary forest (Kakande). Further adults of other tiger beetle species are syntopic in the same habitats (see P. angusticollis ecological remarks for both localities).
