Iolaus (Philiolaus) poecilaon (Riley, 1928) Argiolaus poecilaon Riley, 1928. Novitates Zoologicae 34: 379 (374-394). Type locality: Uganda: “Entebbe”.

It chews off these buds and positions itself so that its head takes their place, thereby achieving a remarkable degree of camouflage. Congdon and Collins, 1998: 96.
