Male genitaliaas in nominate form. Male holotype and 8 male para types 36 entomologists record, vol. 15/11/76 in authors collection.

It is interesting to note that this subspecies bears aclose superficial resemblance to subspecies Maris Stau-dinger, which has been recorded from Syria, Palestine,Lebanon and Male genitalia of Spialia orbifer anavalsae ssp. valve removed; aedoeagus detached. 18. Carcharodus alceae Esper. A couple of females recordedin the plains by the sea. 19. Reverdinus orientalis Reverdin. A single female recordedon a hillside. As can be seen from these records, the total number ofspecies found in Spring on the island of Skyros is small (19)and in no way compares with the number of species foundduring the same period on the Greek mainland (as many as 57 PLATE III
