Comments
Nomen dubium. The taxonomic validity of this species is questionable. The type has been lost, and the type locality is questionable: although it is described as occurring in Ukami, from the Uluguru Mountains in eastern Tanzania, the locality actually be in the Udzungwa Mountains (Ahl 1931).
