View through CrossRef
The status of five species of Liptenini is revised: Liptena decempunctata Schultze, 1923 is transferred to the genus Tetrarhanis Karsch, 1893 (comb. nov.), and Tetrarhanis souanke (Stempffer, 1962) is synonymised with T. decempunctata (Schultze, 1923) (syn. nov.); Liptena mwagensis Dufrane, 1953 is transferred to the genus Micropentila Aurivillius, 1895 (comb. nov.); Liptena sauberi Schultze, 1912 is synonymised with L. modesta (Kirby, 1890) (syn. nov.), and Liptena yukadumae Schultze, 1917 is synonymised with L. tricolora (Bethune-Baker, 1915) (syn. nov.); the synonymy of Pentila occidentalis Bethune-Baker, 1926 with Kakumia ferruginea (Schultze, 1923) is confirmed.
