Gnathocera trivittata trivittata Swederus, 1787
Distribution: GHA, GUI, RCI, SEN, TOG.
Distribution in Angola (Provinces): 1) CNN.
Historic records:
— Angola (without locality), Humbe (CNN) ( Paulino de Oliveira 1882);
— Angola (without locality) ( Ferreira 1965).
Material examined: none.
Remarks. A polymorphic species with many subspecies (12 to 16, e.g. Allard 1991; Krajcik 2008a; Beinhundner 2017a) distributed throughout western and eastern Africa since Senegal–Sudan–Egypt to the Republic of South Africa ( Allard 1991; Krajcik 2008a; Rohwedder 2011; Beinhundner 2017a). The distribution of the nominal subspecies makes implausible its presence in Angola. Probably, the Humbe specimen(s) belong to another subspecies ( e.g. see remarks under Gnathocera trivittata dorsodiscolor ). The larva of the third instar was described by Jerath & Unny (1965). Holm & Marais (1992) provided some ecological data on G. trivittata costata Ancey, 1883 .
