In general, M. tricolor primarily occurs in eastern and southern Africa, from Ethiopia to the RSA, only touching the eastern border of CRB (Bernard 2013: 707). The record from a cave near Thysville (RMCA 16450; Hayman et al. 1966: 52) is, therefore, already far to the west, but not impossible as Koopman (1989: 7) reported a specimen from Liberia, and ACR (2016: 1207) reported another from Nigeria.
