Very common in central/E Sudan in the area between Wad Madani and Metema (on the border with Ethiopia). Also goes a bit north from there, at least close to Kassala.

Details on records can be provided upon request.

We could not find the species in the area of the type locality (Dongola), whereas its presence cannot be excluded given it is located in the Nile valley and southern species could migrate along the more humid riverbanks. More research is needed here. Maybe the original description also confused the address of a potential specimen shipment from Dongola (which is a fairly large town, also historically, with a trading post etc.) with the original collection locality.

We never found A. hartmanni in desert habitats. The species rather seems to occur in fairly well vegetated savannas/woodlands with a long dry season. The species seems to be solitary.

In E Sudan the species seems to be fairly abundant and can be frequently recorded. For example, it can be easily found on roads shortly before sunset.

The species seems do to well also in populated areas with agriculture etc.

Least Concern

Agreed.
