Mycalesis HAROLDI H. Druce, in H. Druce & H.H. Druce, 1905

Transactions of the Entomological Society of London for 1905, 251–263 [252], plate XIII, figure 2.

Syntypes, 2 males, pinned. Specimen data: Specimen reg. no.39: “ 25/4/04 ” [Handwritten in pencil].”N.W.R.”[Handwritten in ink]. “ Rhodesia / Cookson / 1930-202 / 39” [Printed]. “CO-TYPE” [Handwritten in ink on mauve card].

Remarks : These two male specimens were collected by Harold Cookson in northwest Rhodesia (the type locality) in 1904. Hamilton Druce’s description is based on a male type but he implies he had other specimens before him. These are some of those specimens labelled “co-types” and can be considered as syntypes .
