Recently, when looking for informations about Italian armored units at Sidi Nsir in Northern Tunisia someone linked me a thread with German documents about Unternehmen Ochsenkopf (attack towards Beja town through Sidi Nsir valley, launched on 26 February 1943) .
When looking through them I noticed, that Germans mentioned "Superga" Division on this page (3. point):

The line basically says, that "Left wing of the Korpsgruppe Weber must cooperate with right wing of the Superga division".
As far as I know Superga operated in southern parts of Tunisia at this point, so what is it doing here? Maybe sent some detachments?
 
At the time of the beginning of the operations the deployment of the Superga was as follows.....at the moment the south of Tunisia was held (Italians) by the 50th Imperiali brigade
