Numerous and various localities in the Koup Karoo, Great Karoo, North-eastern Karoo, Nieuveld Karoo, Knersvlakte, Namaqualand, Bushman- land, Griqualand West and Great Namaqualand in South-West Africa. The types come from 'Buffels River near Merweville (Mus. Exp., Oct. 1940)' in the Koup Karoo. This widely distributed and relatively common species is easily recognized by its black frons and face, reddish-tipped or almost black scutellum, entirely black abdomen above and darkly infuscated, spotted, marbled and clouded.
