Hydrodroma despiciens (Müller, 1776)

Distribution. Lake Tanganyika (Cunnington 1920 [listed], Soar 1910, Viets 1953 [listed]).

Remarks. Viets (1953) acknowledged that the locality data for the species he listed for Zambia were insufficient to be certain of the country of origin. Although the southern limit of Lake Tanganyika falls in Zambia’s Northern Province, Cunnington’s account of limnological studies of the lake suggests this species was more likely to have been collected from the Tanzanian part (Cunnington 1920, p. 508).
