DISTRIBUTION:

Goodia (Campimoptilum) boulardi, (wingspan: males: approximately 53mm; females: mm), inhabits Tanzania, and
possibly Kenya.

I am not sure if boulardi is now regarded as a good species or if this moth has been synonymized with hollandi. Thierry Bouyer had indicated it is a synonym of hollandi, but BOLD Systems, and, I believe, a 2008 publication by Darge treat it as a valid species.
