Fabricins, in his Syst. Ent., (1775), had used for this insect the 

 name of Aslyanax, but in the Ent. Syst., (1793), he changed 

 it to Ursula in consequence of the previous name already 

 having been used to designate one of the $ varietiesjof Pap. 

 Pammon (figured in Don., Ins. Ind., t. 19), both insects being 

 in the genus Papilio as then defined; his action in making 

 this change, and thus, as he supposed, avoiding synonymy, 

 was of course right, and his later name would have stood had 

 not Stoll, (in 1790), in his Supplement to Cram., three years 

 prior to this change, figured and cited the species as Ephestion, 

 and as, at the time of his so doing, Axtyanax was a synonym, 

 his name will have to be retained, and the later one of Ursu 

 la. even though applied by Fabricius, should be dropped.
