OF ARTS AND SCIENCES. 181 



481. GONOPHLEBIA. 



1870 (Aug.). Feld., Pet. Nouv. Eut. 95: paradoxa. Sole species, 

 and therefore type. 

 Proposed to supplant Globiceps, preoccupied. Is it a butterfly? 

 See also Pseudopontia. 



482. GOXOPTERA.* 



1820. Dalm. in Cillb., Euum. Ins. 7G [Gourptera] : rhamni (ihemni), 

 Cleopatra. 

 Falls before Colias (q. v.). See also Gonepteryx and Earina. 



483. GONOPTERIS.* 



1832. Gey. in Hiibn., Zutr. iv. 34: Pergcea. Sole species, and 

 therefore type. 

 Tiie name is preoccupied through Gonoptera (Dalm., Lep. 1820, and 

 Latr., Lep. 1825). 



484. GoRGO.* 

 1816. Ilubn., Yerz, G4: Ceto, Medusa, CEme (Psodea, Q^rae). 



The name foils before Erebia. See also Marica, Syngea, Phorcis, 

 Epigea, and Oreina. 



485. Graphidm.* 



1777. Scop., Introd. 433 : Medon and an immense number of wholly 

 disconnected species, arranged in eight divisions. 

 None of these divisions (when they contain more than a single species) 

 are homogeneous. Take, for example, the second, whicli among others 

 contains Sarpedon fPapilionides], Mneme [Tribuni], populi [ Arcliontes], 

 and Clio [Ilamadryades] ; or the fourth with these : Euterpe [Stalach- 

 tis], Charithonia [a Heliconian], and Venilia [Athyma]. Every one of 

 the families are represented. The genus must thereibrc be dropped as 

 thoroughly discreditable to the author, even at the early time it was 

 established. 



486. Grapta.* 



1837. Kirb., Faun. Bor. Amer. 292 : Procjne (c. argenteum). Sole 



species, and therefore type. 

 1848. Doubl., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 195: employs it for a number of 

 species, including the above, 

 lie gives Polygonia as a synonyme, but evidently at one time intended 

 to use it in preference to Grapta, since he elsewhere in the text (p. 199) 

 refers to this genus as Polygonia. 



1861. Feld., Neues Lep. 12: uses it in the same sense. 



It has been elsewhere very generally adopted, btit is synonymous 

 with Polygonia, and must fall before it. See also Comma.
