230 PROCEEDINGS OP THE AMERICAN ACADEMY 



1844. Doubl., List Br. Mus. 96: employs it for populi, Artemis, etc. 



1850. Westw., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 306 : considers Jason as type. 



1861. Feld., Neues Lep. 41 : divides the group into four sections, 

 including the genera Cymatogramma and Paphia of 

 Doubleday's Genera, but mentions no species referred 

 to the group by Latreille. See remarks in his note. 



1871. Kirb., Syn. Cat. 267; uses it for Jason and allies; but on p. 



648 makes it supplant Vanessa, and refers the genus to 

 Linne. 



1872. Crotch, Cist. Ent. i. 60: also wrongly refers the genus to 



Linne [Nymphales], and says that Lamarck in 1801 

 (where only the plural form is used) fixed the type as 

 Atalanta. 



1872. Scudd., Syst. Rev. 10 : specifies Polychloros as type, erro- 

 neously. See also Neptis and Limenitis. 



757. NYMPHIDIUM. 

 1807. Fabr., HI. Mag. vi. 286: Caries, Thelephus (Telephus), 



Athemon, 



1815. Oken, Lehrb. i. 722 : the same and others. 

 1832. Boisd.-LeC., Lep. Am. Sept. 130 [Nymphidia] : Casneus 



(Pumila). 



1836. Boisd., Spec, gen., pi. 2 B.: Jessa. 

 1847. Doubl.j List Br. Mus. 10: employs it for a large number, 



including, of Fabricius's species, only Caricas. 



1851. Westw., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 447 : employs it for twenty species, 

 including Caricaa and Lamis, which are specified as " rep- 

 resentative." 

 1868. Bates, Journ. Linn. Soc. Lond. ix. 450 : uses it for nearly 



fifty species, including Caricoe. 

 1872. Crotch, Cist. Ent. i. 66 : says that Carica3 is type, through 



Westwood in 1850 [1851]. 



Caricae, however, belongs to Peplia, 1816, and Athemon to another 

 family. Hence Thelephus should be taken as the type. See Peplia, 

 Desmozona, and Heliochlaena. 



758. NYMULA. 



1836. Boisd., Spec, ge*n., pi. 4 C. : Gnosis. Sole species, and there- 

 fore type. 



1840. Blanch., Hist. Nat. Ins. iii. 465 [Nimula]. 



1868. Bates, Joum. Linn. Soc. Lond. ix. 450 : employs it for Gnosis 

 and allies.
