Habitat and ecology
Description
Conservation
Setaphis sexmaculata is listed as Data Deficient for taxonomic reasons by the South African National Biodiversity Institute as too little is known about the location, habitat and threats of this taxon for an assessment to be made.[3] Both samples were collected prior to 1893, and the placement of the species is problematic.
