new ssp of Graphium from Cameroon

Post by adamcotton »

I received notification of the following new paper:

Bollino, M. & Bouyer, T. 2024. A new subspecies of Graphium bouyeri Cipolla, 2021 and notes on taxonomic status of Graphium biokoensis Gauthier, 1984 (Lepidoptera, Papilionidae). Faunitaxys, 12(8): 1 – 6.
The paper can be downloaded here:

Abstract:
A new subspecies of Graphium bouyeri Cipolla, 2021 is described from Cameroon and from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Graphium bouyeri birketsmithi n. ssp. The taxonomic status of the Graphium policenes biokoensis Gauthier, 1984 is discussed and reinstated as a subspecies of Graphium policenes (Cramer, 1775), localized to Bioko Island.
