appetens Brunner v. Wattenwyl, 1907: 281 [ Dixippus ].

PLT, ♁: Java; Brunner v. W. et Redtenbacher det. 1903 Type; Dix. appetens Br. v. W.

PLT, ♁: West Java; Brunner v. W. et Redtenbacher det. 1903 Type; Dix. appetens Br. v. W.

Probable PLT, ♁: Java occident., Mons Gede 4000', 1898 H. Fruhstorfer .

Comment: The specimen from Mt. Gede lacks a type label, but appears to be part of the type series. The LT is in NMW (No. 549); PLT’s in NMW and SMNS.

Whilst the PLT from “Java” is entirely dark rusty red, the PLT from “West Java” has great parts of the body green, the head, prothorax and posterior portions of the meso- and metathorax straw, and the legs bright red.
