Habrodera nilotica subsp. nilotica Dejean 1825
Description
Habrodera nilotica nilotica (Dejean, 1825)
Distribution in Angola (provinces): 1) Cunene; 2) Kwanza Sul.
Material examined: Cambambe (coord.: 9º 45´27.15´´ S, 14º 30´38.15´´ E, 111 m alt., 109) (KWANZA SUL), 6.XI.2014, 6♂, 5♀, DO, A. Serrano leg., ASC.
Remarks. One of the three species of Habrodera genus present in Angola. The species occurs throughout the African countries south of the Sahel (Werner 2000b) and in Egypt (Abdel-Dayem et al. 2003). It occupies the shores and banks of rivers and lakes. The adults (Fig. 9 c) were found in hunting activity in the clay-sandy Kwanza river edge near the Cambambe dam (Fig. 9 d). Very close and behind appears L. negleta intermediola. The presence of H. nilotica in Cambambe locality increases its distribution far to the north of Angola. It is a new record for the Kwanza Sul province.
