[Charaxes doubledayi Aurivillius]
Charaxes doubledayi Aurivillius, 1898: 244 (Sierra Leone).
This species, long confused with C. mycerina, occurs in the forests of the Guinean subregion. C. mycerina has been attributed to the Occidental fauna on the basis of the record from Sierra Leone by Schaus and Clements (1893: 9), but the Clements specimens were more probably the species Aurivillius later called doubledayi; mycerina is probably confined to the Equatorial region.
