Link to the "Afrotropical Butterfly Database" please. This is per Mark Williams (up to date), which has been the source in use for years.
Taxonomic changes on iNaturalist aren't based on specific papers, but rather the adoption of the changes proposed in papers by recognized databases or frameworks (such as Williams Encyclopaedia).

This is the specific pdf. But you could have found it very easily, if you had cared to.
I did: but in it both subspecies are recognized: you should have figured that out!
see page 52&53
Please double check and unless you have a more recent publication, then reinstate these subspecies please.
@tonyrebelo Well, I'm an ass. Sincerely Tony, my apologies. The copy of the document I've been using is 2 weeks older than the new updated pdf, and I had not realized Williams (following Bernaud) had once again reversed positions on ssp. rosa. I'll reinstate and be more careful next time.
... and atlasing didn't work out as I intended.
The following 18 observations have been negatively impacted by my mucking about. Fortunately, most of the IDers are fairly active, so I expect it'll all be rectified shortly:

Is this the right split? Are these not https://www.inaturalist.org/taxon_changes/128721 ?
Just one: must have crept in by error.
The Afrotropical Butterfly database recognizes these as separate taxa -
This citation is inadequate and does not link to the relevant paper. Please provide it.
