Abstract
An annotated list of the Papilionoidea, and Hesperioidea and collection localities of Bioko Island (Equatorial Guinea), Africa is provided with discussions of nomenclatural problems and confusion surrounding locality synonomy. Two synonyms are proposed: Hypolimnas salmacis ulysses Collins (1987) a junior synonym of Hypolimnas salmacis insularis Schultze (1920), and Papilio echerioides gabrieli Gauthier (1984) a junior synonym of Papilio echerioides zoroastres Druce (1878). A comprehensive literature review and study of the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (CSIC) of Madrid collection increased the known Papilionoidea and Hesperioidea species diversity for Bioko Island from ca. 100 to 244, 33 of which are new species records for the island.
