Common names: Kanga, Lusese
Occurrence: native
Salinity: freshwater
Abundance: | Ref:
Importance: | Ref:
Aquaculture: | Ref:
Regulations: | Ref:
Uses: live export: yes;
Comments: Found mainly in the drainage system of the Cuanza River and minor rivers flowing into the Atlantic Ocean (Ref. 47311, 120641). Possibly also in the Cunene River drainage (Ref. 47311, 52193, 120641). There are also unconfirmed reports of the species inhabiting the upper Kasai (Chiumbe River in Pellegrin 1936 and Ref. 11970, and the Luembe River in Ref. 11970) and upper Cubango (Ref. 47311), but at least reports from the Kasai are thought to represent a different, unidentified species (Ref. 47311). Also Ref. 3788, 11970, 27139, 52193.

Africa: Cuanza River and minor rivers flowing into the Atlantic Ocean in Angola (Ref. 47311, 120641). Possibly also in the Cunene River system in Angola (Ref. 11970, 52193, 120641) and Namibia (Ref. 52193). Unconfirmed reports from the Cubango (e.g. in Ref. 11970) and upper Kasai in central and northeastern Angola respectively, at least the latter may represent an unidentified species (Ref. 47311).
