Abstract
During extensive field work in West Africa (Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Sierra Leone), the authors collected two skipper species in the genus Andronymus (Lepidoptera, Hesperiidae), which would not fit the descriptions of any existing taxa. Both are described as new, A. magma sp. nov. is known only from Cameroon, while A. fenestra sp. nov. was found in a few localities in the Liberian sub-region of West Africa.Keywords: Lepidoptera, Andronymus magma sp. nov., Andronymus fenestra sp. nov., butterflies, Mount Cameroon, Liberian sub-region, West Africa
