Pteroteinon iricolor (Holland) (Fig102, S genitalia)
Proteides iricolor Holland, 1890b: 156 (Ogove).
This apparently uncommon species has been recorded from scattered localities from Sierra Leone to Gabon and the Congo. The dates on the Liberian specimens indicate that the species flies just prior to the rainy season, when most of the butterfly species have passed
their peak numbers and when fewer collectors are in the field.
The first records for Liberia are: Harbel, 2 $ , IV, 1 $ , V (Fox).
In addition to the above specimens, the collection at Carnegie Museum contains the type from Gabon and a single specimen from Cameroon.

Pteroteinon iricolor, the green-winged red-eye, is a butterfly in the family Hesperiidae. It is found in Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Nigeria, Cameroon, Gabon, the Republic of the Congo and the central part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The habitat mostly consists of wet forests.

Adults have been recorded feeding on the flowers of Mussaenda species.
