Discussion of Phylogenetic Relationships
The putative genus Pseudomylothris Neustetter, 1929, was described based upon a specimen of Mylothris leonora Krüger, 1928, determined by Vane-Wright and Liseki (2011) to have aberrant wing venation compared to conspecific individuals which exhibit venation typocal of the genus Mylothris..References
