899. Princeps. 

 1806. Hiibu., Tent. 1 : Machaon. Sole species, and therefore type. 

 See Amaryssus, Papilio. 



900. Prioneris. 

 1867. Wall., Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. [3] iv. 383 : Thestylis (Thes- 

 tylis, Seta), Sita, Clemanthe (Clemanthe, Berenice), 

 Vollenhovii, Cornelia, Philonome, Autothisbe. 



1870. But]., Cist. Ent. i. 33 : specifies Thestylis as the type. 



1871. Kirb., Syu. Cat. 477 : employs it for all of Wallace's species 



and others. 



901. Procris. 

 1864. Herr.-SchaefF., Pi'cdr. i. 23 :* no species mentioned. 



In his list, p. G6, this name is supplanted by Acca Hiibn. and 

 Procris and Urdaneta referred to it. These cannot be placed in Acca 

 (q.v.) ; but the name of the genus, being the same as that of one of the 

 species upon which it is founded, falls. It is also preoccupied in Lepi- 

 doptera (Fabr, 1807). 



902. Prometheus.* 

 1822-26. Hiibn., Exot. Schmett. ii. : Casmilus. Sole species, and 

 therefore type. 

 It is not a butterfly. 



903. Pronophila. 



1849. Doubl., Gen. Diurn. Lep., pi. 60: Thelebe, Irmina, Phoronea. 



1850. Doubl., Gen. Diurn. Lep., pi. 66 : Tauropolis. 



1851. W6stw., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 357: the same with others. 



1867. Butl., Ann. JNIag. Nat. Hist. [3] xx. 266 ; Cat. Sat. 184 : speci- 

 fies Thelebe as the type. 

 1871. Kirb., Syn. Cat. 108: uses it in Butler's sense. 



904. Proteides. 

 1816. Hiibn., Verz. 105: Idas (Mercurius), Zestos, Exadeus, Ly- 

 cidas (Lyciades), Clonius, Renaldus, Assaricus, Amphion. 



1869. Bull., Cat. Fabr. Lep. 264: employs it for seven species, in- 



cluding Idas and Clonius (Clonias). 



1870. lb., Ent. Monthl. Mag. vii. 93 : specifies Idas (Mercurius) as 



type. 



905. Protesilaus.* 

 1832-33. Swains., Zool. 111. ii. 9-3, 104: P/-oi'esz7m<s (Leilus), Bel- 

 lerophon (Swainsonii). Protesilaus specified as type. 

 The name, of course, falls, from being founded upon one of the species 

 on which the genus is established.
