Glossina tabaniformis was historically reported from
Central Africa, but with pockets extending also to
West Africa as far as
Liberia or
Guinea. A review of the scientific literature from 1990 – 2020 only found confirmation of
G. tabaniformis for five countries; the
Democratic Republic of the Congo,
Equatorial Guinea and
Gabon. In addition to these five countries, prior records indicated that the species was also present in
Angola, the
Congo and
Nigeria, and that it was or could still be present also in
Côte d’Ivoire,
Ghana and
Guinea. ==References==
