Remarks[Moyen Congo is the colonial term for Congo/Republic of the Congo, which means this sample may be listed correctly. However, the city of Berberati on the Sangha river is technically in Central African Republic, very close to the border of DRC. While Moyen-Congo and Central African Republic (Ubangi-Shari) were always considered somewhat seperate, they both were comprised on the French Congo colony in 1936 - so I think this sample was most likely collected in Central African Republic. -- Evan Hockridge 3/30/2023]
