Eutricha capensis (Linnaeus, 1767) Holotype ♀ LSL Holotype ♀, LSL. South Africa South Africa, Western Cape, Africa.
Distribution note:

Records of Mozambique, South Africa: KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo or Mpumalanga (e.g. E. C. G. Pinhey 1975: 124) refer to Eutricha obscurum. The record of Tanzania (A. Pagenstecher 1893: 245 – https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/11839734) needs confirmation, and probably refers to Eutricha obscurum.
