The ‘sapphires’ were reviewed by Stempffer & Bennett (1958, 1959). Farquharson (1921: 376) describes the phenomenon of an “electric” sensation when handling the larvae of certain species of Iolaus. An explanation for this is attempted by Eltringham (1921b: 484). Subgenus Iolaus Hübner, 1819 In: Hübner, 1816-1826. Verzeichniss bekannter Schmettlinge: 81 (432 + 72 pp.). Augsburg.
