Comment: Its distribution in the island seems to be overlap with the previous species, spreading not only Madagascar but also in the continent, Mozambique (

NAVÁS 1924a) Kenya (unpublished data in coll. USMB). Original combination was Formicoleo majungalensis Esben-Petersen, 1916, STANGE (2004) placed it to Distoleon Banks, 1910 automatically but it belongs to Nemoleon majungalensis (Esben-Petersen, 1916) n. comb. Legs are slender and rather long. Tibial spurs are as long as tarsal segment 1 -2 together on fore and middle legs and its length equal to basitarsus on the hind leg. Neuroleon belohensis (Navás, 1924) combined by STANGE (2004) was a wrong combination. Distribution: Prov. Mahajanga, Toliara.
