Title : Notes on scent marking by means of an androconial brush organ in the Skipper Coeliades forestan (Stoll, [1782]) (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae: Coeliadinae)
Abstract : Scent marking behavior by males of the skipper Coeliades forestan (Stoll,[1782]) (Hesperiidae: Coeliadinae) is described for the first time. Putative pheromone is deposited on the leaves of shrubs and trees by males, in a linear territory while patrolling, by means of a black, brush-like organ which is exserted from the anal end of the abdomen. Scent marking by male Lepidoptera appears not to have been reported before.

Title : The female of Iolaus coelestis Bethune-Baker, 1926 (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae)
Abstract : The neallotype female of Iolaus coelestis Bethune-Baker, from western Democratic Republic of Congo, is suggested to represent a specimen of Iolaus (Argiolaus) poecilaon (Riley). A female referable to true I. coelestis is described from the Ikelenge district in north-western Zambia. The I. laon group of species is suggested to be more closely related to species placed in subgenus Iolaus H?bner than to those in subgenus Epamera Druce.
