Xanthodisca Aurivillius, 1925 This genus was introduced by Aurivillius (1925) for Astictopterus vibius Hewitson and Pamphila rega Mabille, which at that time was considered a subspecies of vibius. Up until then, vibius had been treated as a species of Pardaleodes, and Evans (1937) considered Xanthodisca to be closely allied to Pardaleodes. Evans added two species to the genus: Pardaleodes astrape from West and central Africa and Pamphila ariel Mabille, a Madagascan endemic. Carcasson (1981) and Ackery et al.
