110 PROCEEDINGS OP THE AMERICAN ACADEMY 



18G5. Herr.-ScIiaefF., Prodr, i. 7G: Chloe. The generic name is 

 credited to Boisduval ! 

 Feroaia may be taken as the type. 



64. Amphidecta. 



1867. Butl., Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. [3] xx. 404: pignerator. Sole 

 species, and tlierefore type. 



65. Amphidema. 



1861. Feld., Neues Lep. 27 : Beckeri. Sole species, and therefore 

 type. 



66. Amphirene.* 



1844. Doubl., List Br. Mus. 86: Trayja (Traja), Epaphus. 



1848. lb., Gen. Diuru. Lep., pi. 32: Epaj)hus. 



1870. Boisd., Lep. Guat. 43 : Epaphus (Epaphea) and others. 

 This name falls before Slproeta (q. v.)- 



67. Amphrisius.* 



1832-33. Swains., Zool. 111. ii. 98 : Pompeus (Nymphalides). 



Amphrisius is one of the synonymes of this species ; and the gen- 

 eric name being fomided upon it falls, and cannot be employed. See 

 Troidos. 



68. Amtcla.* 



1849. Doubl., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 223 : Taurione and three more to 



wliich a query is attached ; namely, Orphise (Orphise 

 Triphosa), Amycla, and Cojlina. 



It is employed for Taurione and another species by Felder (Neues 

 Lepid.) ; but, being founded upon the name of one of the species origi- 

 nally hicluded in it, it falls, notwithstanding that Doubleday expressly 

 says that the species Amycla may belong to Cybdelis. 



69. Amynthia. 



1832-33. Swains., Zool. 111. ii. 65 : Chlorinde (Swainsonia), Mae- 



rula (Merula) ; type specified as Morula. 

 1847. Doubl., Gen. Diurn. Lep. i. 70 : proposes that it should be used 

 for the American species placed by him in Gonepteryx, 

 which includes both of the above. (See also Rhodocera.) 

 1870. Butl., Cist. Ent. i. 35, 45 : indicates Chlorinde (Swainsonia) as 

 type, but of course erroneously. 

 This generic name must be retained, because Anteos (q. v.) is vir- 

 tually preoccupied.
