Revision of the <i>Cerautola crippsi<i> species group, with the description of three new taxa from Cameroon and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae: Poritiinae)

The Cerautola crippsi species group is revised, based on examination of some 90 specimens of group members accumulated by ABRI workers during the last fifteen years. Three new taxa are described Cerautola crippsi teresae ssp. nov. (Northern Cameroon), Cerautola richardsoni sp. nov. (Western Cameroon) and Cerautola cuypersi sp. nov.
