Hindwings with a submarginal olivaceous band varied with silver; anal angle ochreous, enclosing a violaceous spot.
[5] Historical attempts to assemble a cluster of presumably related species into a "Charaxes jasius Group" have not been wholly convincing.
More recent taxonomic revision,[6] corroborated by phylogenetic research, allow a more rational grouping congruent with cladistic relationships.
Within a well-populated clade of 27 related species sharing a common ancestor approximately 16 mya during the Miocene,[7] 26 are now considered together as The jasius Group.
[6] One of the two lineages within this clade forms a robust monophyletic group of seven species sharing a common ancestor approximately 2-3 mya, i.e. during the Pliocene,[7] and are considered as the jasius subgroup.
