® It is true, the name Diadema is pre-occupied (in Crustacea), and by Rule 10 

 Zool. Nom., should be changed; but the only name as yet suggested is Hypolim- 

 nas, used by Kirby, Cat., and called Hypolimnas, Hubuer. That will not do at 

 all. The name was one of Hiibner's coitus names, and a coitus is not a genus. 

 It is used by Hiibner for a group of which •' the fore wings are white spotted, the 

 hind wings p'tle banded, Bind this does not apply to Misippu.s ; and finally Kirby 

 has not •' clearly defined" it, as Rule 12 says must be done to make a genus name 

 admissable. Had he defined it, it would have been Hypolimnas Kirby, not Hiib- 

 ner. So I retain Diadema.
