 Tlie name was proposed to supplant Enope preoccupied ; but it is 

 itself preoccupied tlirougli Neopus (Ilodgs., Birds, 1841). Probably 

 some English entomologist (the passion for the formation of generic 

 terms by transposition seems to be strong in England) will propose 

 Nopca, Eponc, Opene, or Oncpe, to take its place !
