1850. Westw., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 289 : places twenty-five species in 



the genus, among them Aconthea, which he specifies as 



type.* 

 1861. Feld., Neues Lep. 34: divides the genus into ten sections, the 



first of which he names Itanus, and places in it Aconthea 



and four others. See Aconthea. 



22. ADOI^EA. 



1820. Billb., Enum. Ins. 81 : Thaumas (linea) and a MS. species. 

 Thaumas is therefore the type See Pelion. 



1860. Feld., Wien. Ent. Monatschr. iv. 110: Kollari. Sole spe- 

 cies, and therefore type. 



This generic terra is too close to JSgialia (Latr., Col. 1807) ; and 

 probably for this reason in a copy of the Lepidopterologische Fragmente 

 in my possession the name is erased, and Acentrocneme (q. v.) sub- 

 stituted. 



24. JEMONA. 



1868. He wits., Exot. Butt. iv. 64 : Amathusia. Sole species, and 

 therefore type. . 



zO. ./EjOLA. 



1820. Billb., Enum. Ins. 78 : Iris, Ilia, Bolina (Lasciuassa, Bolina), 



and a MS. species. 



No matter which species is chosen as the type, the genus is preoc- 

 cupied. See Apatura and Potamis. 



26. AERIA. 

 1816. Hu'bn., Verz. 9 : Nasica. Reckia (Reckii), Aegle, Eumelia 



(Vocula), assarica (asarica). 



The first species is a moth, and Eumelia is very distinct from the 

 others. 

 1844. Doubl., List Br. Mus. 149 : places six species in this group, 



among which are Aegle and Reckia of Hiibner's list. 

 1847. Ib., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 126: places four species in the group, 

 of which Aegle is the only one of the original species of 

 Hiibner's. 

 Aegle then should be the type. See Choridis. 



* It rnay seern out of place to some to consider a species as type, when 

 reference is originally made to the larva only; but the entire force of the objec- 

 tion is lost, when we remember that generic distinctions are as easily traced in 

 the larva as in the imago.
