As mentioned above, confusion with N. somalica might have led to some mis-identifications. However, one specimen in the collection of the Zürich Museum from Mimuli (Rwanda) was identified as belonging to this species. The distribution map presented by Happold et al. (2013: 658) indicates that the species seems to cover two major distribution areas, one covering the northeastern part of Uganda and the western part of Kenya, reaching into central Ethiopia, and a second reaching from the southeastern DRC over major parts of Zambia and Zimbabwe to northeastern and eastern Botswana and the northeastern RSA. They also indicate its presence at separate localities in eastern Kenya, Angola, Namibia, Malawi and central RSA. ACR (2016: 1264) furthermore mentions specimens from Mozambique, South Sudan and Swaziland.
