NOTES

According to Jones (1962) and Grolle (1995), all African records of the common Asiatic Plagochila javanica (sect. Vagae) should be erroneous. The species has been reported from Madagascar by Stephani (1894) and Dugas (1928), but the record of Dugas (as P. calva : leg. Camboué, PC) is P. angusta ( Grolle [1995], however, identified it as P. rodriguezii ); that of Stephani has not been revised. Jones (1962) identified a further P. javanica specimen from Madagascar (leg. Parker, New York) as P. heterostipa Steph. , but the material probably belongs to P. terebrans (see above, under “Further record”).
