Even though this species was reported from the Middle Chari by Pellegrin (1914), it has never again been found there. Furthermore, the specimens mentioned by Pellegrin have apparently not been preserved, and hence there is no possibility of further verification on this matter. Therefore, and pending confirmation of its presence in West Africa, we are limiting ourselves here to an account of the principal metric and meristic features of some specimens of M. engystoma from Congo. |
