Remarks. The species is scattered throughout West, Central and northeastern Africa (Serrano 2009a; Lorenz 2021). The first record was for Guinea-Bissau by LaFerté-Sénectère (1849) under the name of Casnonia senegalensis Dejean, 1831 and then later reported in several localities of Guinea-Bissau by Serrano (2009a). It seems a common species in this country. The adult specimens were captured by LT within urban environments (Cacheu) and open secondary forest (Banhinda) (Table 1). It is a new species record for CAC Administrative Region, Guinea-Bissau.
