107. Appias. 



181 G. Hiibn., Yerz. 91 : Zelmira, Achine. 



As Achine is needed as type of Anthopsyche, Zelmira may be con- 

 sidered tlie type of this group. 



108. Apkotopos.* [Aprotopus in Index.] 



1871. Kirb., Syn. Cat. 19: iEdesia, Ceto, Melantho, Pytbo 



iEdesia being tlie necessary type of Xanthocleis, tliis name must 

 fall, unless one of the other species should prove generically distinct. 



109. Arasciinia. 

 1816. Iliibn., Verz. 37: Levana (Levana, Prorsa). Sole sj^ecies, 

 and tberefore type. 



110. Arcas.* 



1832-33. Swains., Zool. 111. ii. 88: impericdis. Sole species, and 

 therefore type. 

 Must this name fall before Evenus? (q.v-) 



111. Arciiox. 



1822. Iliibn., Syst.-Alph. Verz. : Macbaon (Macbaon, Spbyrus), 

 JMedisicaste, Mnemosyne, Phoebus, Podalirius (Poda- 

 lyrius), Polyxena, Rumina, ApoUinus (Thia). 

 ApoUinus may be taken as the type. See Doritis. 



112. AnciioxiAS. 

 1825. HUbn., Zutr. iii. 19: Tereas (Marcias). Sole species, and 

 therefore type. See Euterpe. 



113. Aresta. 

 1820. Dalm. in Billb., Enum. Iiis. 79: Amcstris, Idalia, Ariadne, As- 

 terie, C'loantba, Laomedia. 

 Laomedia may be selected as tlie type of this genus. 



114. Arge.* 

 1816. Hiibn., Verz. GO: occitanica (Psycbe), Arge (Ampbitrite), 

 Thetis (Inis), llussiie (Clotlio), Lachesis, Galatbea. 

 This generic term has been used largely by subsequent authors 

 (Boisduval, Duponcliel, Stephens, Doubleda\-, Westwood, Rambur.etc), 

 always in noarl}' the same sense ; and Butler and Grote even cite occi- 

 tanica (Syllius Butl., Psyclie Grote) as the type; but tlic name cannot 

 stand : first, because founded upon a name "tised for one of the original 

 species; and, second, because preoccupied in Ilymenoptera (Scinank, 

 1801J. See Agapetes and Melanargia.
