Liptena durbania bergeri Stempffer, Bennett View in CoL & May, 1974, stat rev. ( Figs 20, 21 View Figures 9–21 )

Liptena bergeri Stempffer, Bennett & May, 1974. – A Revision of some groups of Liptena Westwood ( Lepidoptera : Lycaenidae ). Bulletin of the British Museum (Natural History) (Entomology), 30 (2): 177 (male, Shaba; not illustrated).

Liptena bergeri Stempffer, Bennett & May, 1974 sensu Berger, 1981: 191.

Holotype: male, Kafakumba (Katanga), iv.1929 (F.G. Overlaet); genitalia Stempffer 3592; MRAC .

Genitalia:

Stempffer et al. illustrate those of the male holotype (1974, Fig. 49). The figure shows a weakly indented uncus; the subunci seem closer to those of subspecies eukrinoides , but the angle of observation is not the same as for Fig. 6. On the valves, the most conspicuous character is the wide ventral plate, perhaps even wider than in subspecies eukrinoides .
