Remarks

All paratypes of Le Moult’s aberrations of Z. regalis favareli were found combined in one drawer without separation or indication to which name they belong. The aberrations pseudocuprea, viridimarginatus and viridiventris are also described from Etoumbi. The single specimen (ZMH 843024) can be confidently assigned to the Z. regalis favareli s. str. since only the normal form of this subspecies was described from Bénito.
