914. PSEUDOLYC^ENA. 



1858. Wallengr., K. Vet. Akad. Forh. xv. 80: Marsyas. Sole 

 species, and therefore type. See CEnomaus. 



915. PSEUDONYMPHA.* 



1857. Wallengr., Rhop. Caffr. 31 : Hippia, Cassias (hyperbioides), 



Hyperbius, Narycia. 



1858. Ib., K. Vet. Akad. Forh. xv. 79 : Hippia only, which therefore 



becomes type. 

 1868. Butl., Ent. Monthl. Mag. iv. 194 ; Cat. Sat. 93 : specifies 



Hippia as the type. 

 This name must fall before Melampias. 



916. PSEUDOPHELES.* 



1867. Bates, Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. [3] v. 544 : Sericina. Sole 



species, and therefore type. 

 The name falls before Esthemopsis, as pointed out by Bates himself. 



917. PSEUDOPONTIA.* 



1870 (Sept.). Plotz, Stett. Ent. Zeit. xxxi. 348: paradoxa (cala- 

 barica). Sole species, and therefore type. 



1870. Butl., Cist. Ent. i. 57 : expresses the opinion that it is not a 



butterfly, but a moth. 



1871. Kirb., Syn. Cat. 438 : employs it for the same. 



The name falls before Gonophlebia. See also Globiceps. 



918. PTERONYMIA. 



1872. Butl.-Druce, Cist. Ent. i. 96: Aletta, Olyrilla, Notilla, fulvi- 



margo. Aetta specified as type. 



919. PTEROURUS.* 



1777. Scop., Introd. 433 : Paris and a great number of others destitute 



of the slightest distinguishing bond of union of any value. 



They are mostly butterflies whose hind wings are prolonged into a 



tail. They are divided into two sections, but it would be difficult to 



say on what ground. The second section contains the following, among 



others: Hector [Papilionides], Leilus [Urania], pruni [Ephori], Proteus 



[Urbicolae], Butes [Vestales]. 



1872. Scudd., Syst. Rev. 43 : specifies Troilus (one of the Scopolian 



species) as type. See Euphoeades. 



But unreasonably and indefensibly, as the name must fall from the 

 incongruity of the materials of which the genus is composed.
