Ptychoproctus complexus Bigot, 1859: 109 (Type locality: South Africa: “Natal. Port [= Durban ]”).

Literature: Bigot (1859), Kröber (1914, 1919, 1933), von Röder (1891), Séguy (1946), Smith (1967), Stuckenberg (1963).

Material examined: SOUTH AFRICA: KwaZulu-Natal: 1♂ Mkuze Reserve, SE 2732 Cb , 300 m, 3–11 x.1977, J.G.H. Londt ( NMSA) .

Distribution: There is one record from Nigeria by Kröber (1933), although it remains in doubt because of the presence of several species of Stylogaster that were unknown at the time. Other than this, the species has been reported several times from South Africa only.
