Abstract :

Part III of the Butterflies of the Afrotropical Region, dealing with the Lycaenidae and Riodinidae, was published by d’Abrera in 2009. The text of this work has been reviewed in detail and in this, the third part of the review the taxonomic changes implemented or suggested by the author in the lycaenid subfamilies Theclinae, Polyommatinae and the family Riodinidae are assessed. Whilst many are accepted, others are reversed or revised. The authors have also made a few minor taxonomic revisions. A complete list of taxonomic changes is included as an Appendix.
