Re: Charaxes lydiae pair
lydiae have been recognised as belonging to his own genus Ydeali Bouyer, 2023.
It is quite different from his supposed sister species as nobilis/superbus (false sister sp) in all aspect of his known biology (morphology, behaviour, ....). It is also a mimic of the Otroeda genus (Lymantrid moth). It is as different from Charaxes than Euxante or Polyura.
