This subspecies is widely distributed in the Ethiopian Region and also occurs in Yemen, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (Fujairah), and Iraq (KATAEV 1997: 247; 2013: 248); JAEGER & KATAEV 2003: 404; FELIX 2009: 112). It is recorded here for Oman (Dhofar province) for the first time.
Regarding the Ethiopian Region BASILEWSKY (1951) recorded Egaploa crenulata DEJEAN, 1829 (with E. fulvipes ERICHSON, 1843 as a junior synonym) from various countries or regions as Iles du Cap Vert, Sénégal, Gambie, Soudan Francaise, Haute-Volta, Niger, Ile de San-Thome, Erythrée, Somalie, Abyssinie, Soudan Anglo-Égyptien, Kenya Colony, Uganda, Congo Belge, Angola, Nyassaland, Afrique Orientale Portugaise, N.E. Damaraland, Madagascar, Ile Maurice, Iles Séychelles and the Iles Amirantes. Later the species was also reported from South Africa, Transvaal (BASILEWSKY 1958: 270) and Mauritania (BASILEWSKY 1970: 170). However, since the revalidation of Idiomelas fulvipes ERICHSON, 1843 by KATAEV (1997) it is not yet clear which of Basilewsky's records from the Ethiopean region refer to I. crenulatus and which to I. fulvipes fulvipe s. Based on revised type material and other material examined by KATAEV (1997: 247, 2013: 248) the subspecies occurs in Cabo Verde, Angola, Botswana, R.S.A., Tanzania, Sudan, Djibouti, the Seychelles and Madagascar. BAEHR (2003: 410) reported it also from Gambia. According to material mentioned above the subspecies occurs also in Ethiopia, Kenya, Ghana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Liberia and Kongo. For Angola, Botswana, RSA, Sudan, Tanzania, the Seychelles, and Madagascar first or further detailed records are presented.
