Hello laetitia.duminy, Welcome to Project Noah. This is a site to post wildlife (no pets or zoo photos, please) taken by you. In case you already know the name of the species you have photographed...go right ahead and fill in the boxes. The Suggestion box is for others to give you names in case you need help with identification. In case you agree with the suggestion, use the Edit option (under the photo on the screen) and input the information so that the spotting is complete. Also, please fill in where you saw the species...not what books say about where it is found. Each different spotting gets its own page! Enjoy the site. Good luck with more spottings!
The Wikipedia link (in my Species I.D. Suggestion) confirms distribution in South Africa, but the picture is not too great. There are many pictures in https://inaturalist.lu/taxa/225159-Milax-gagates/browse_photos
