Pardaleodes xanthopeplus Holland (Fig. 60, $ genitalia)
Pardaleodes xanthopeplus Holland, 1892b: 289 (Ogove).
Evans (1937: 106) mentions specimens only from Cameroon and Gabon; there are specimens in Carnegie Museum from those two countries and from Rio Muni.
A Liberian specimen represents a considerable range extension of xanthopeplus: Liberia, W. Africa, 1 $ (A. C. Good). There is a possibility the specimen was mislabelled, since Good collected extensively in Cameroon and Gabon.
