E. xypete. The apex of the forewing on both surfaces white for a breadth of 2-5 mm.; the submarginal spots of the under surface are more or less completely divided in two and placed only 2-4 mm. from the distal margin; the red costal stripe on the underside of the hindwing never entirely covers the base of cellule 7; the wings above with blackish ground-colour. -xypete Hew.. The under surface of the hindwing broadly suffused with red not only at the costal margin but also in the middle between veins 2 and 7; the subapical band of the fore wing is light yellow or whitish, edged with bluish, reaches vein 3 and is posteriorly not at all or but little widened; base and hindmargin of the forewing more or less extended blue-green; the hindwing shining blue-green above with broad blackish marginal band, in which the deep black submarginal spots often only stand out distinctly in certain lights. Under surface with sharply expressed black submarginal spots; forewing with three or four black spots in the cell and large black discal spots at the proximal side of the subapical band; hindwing only in the cell and at the base of cellules 4-6 (-7) light green with black spots, otherwise bright red, at the inner margin yellow and at the distal margin light green to yellowish green with black marginal line.

[now species Euphaedra crockeri ] the subapical band of the forewing is indistinct and not differing from the ground-colour; the hindwing beneath is only red at the costal margin, the red colour not extending posteriorly beyond vein 7; the ground-colour of the under surface is yellowish green, at the termen distally to the black submarginal spots dark brown. Ashanti and Niger. - crossei E. Sharpe ( = aureofasciata Lathy) [now species Euphaedra crossei ] differs from crockeri in having on the forewing a broad gold-yellow subapical band and a greenish hindmarginal spot, yellowish in the middle.
