The subsequent history of the name is as follows : 

 1819. God., Encycl. meth. 460 : uses it for all the Satyrids. 

 1822-23. Swains., Zool. 111. i. iii.pl. 159: specifies " Hyperanthus, 



Galathea, Semele, etc.," as types. If the name could 



stand, Galathea would then be type. See Agapetes. 

 1832. Boisduval (loc. var.) : most of the European Satyrids. 

 1851. Westw., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 388 : specifies Semele and Fidia as 



representative. 

 1858. Ramb., Cat. Lep. Andal. 25 : employs it for Arethusa and other 



species not given by Latreille. 



1867. Butl., Entom. iii. 279 : says that the " Satyrus of Godart 



cannot be used, as the type of that genus was Constantia 

 of Cramer, a species previously used by Hiibner as 

 the type of his genus Hipio." 



Here are three errors, two of them based on the untenable theory 

 that an author's first species must be taken as his type, which would 

 be an ex post facto rule of great undesirability, and having no proper 

 authority. 



1868. Ib., Ent. Monthl. Mag. iv. 194; Cat. Sat. 59 : specifies Actsca 



as type. 



1872. Crotch, Cist. Ent. i. 91 : erroneously refers the name back to 

 Fabricius [Satyri], and says that Latreille (1805) fixed 

 Megaera as the type. 



954. SCADA. 



1871. Kirb., Syn. Cat. 23: Phyllodoce, Leptalina, Reckia, Phile- 

 mon, Ethica, Theaphia, Xanthina, Zibia. 



As this name is proposed to supplant Salacia (q. v.), Phyllodoce 

 must be taken as the type. See Oleria. 



955. SCALIDONEURA. 



1871. Butl., Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond. 250 : Hermina. Sole species 

 and designated type. 



956. SCELOTHRIX.* 



1858. Ramb., Cat. Lep. Andal. i. 63 : carthami, Alveus, serratulce, 

 onopordi, Fritillum, malvas (Alveolus, melotis), Galactites, 

 cynarce, carlinae, cirsii, cacaliag, centaureae. 

 The name falls before Hesperia. See also Pyrgus and Syrichtus. 



957. SCHCENIS. 

 1816. Hiibn., Verz. 28 : Cinxia (Delia, Cinxia). Sole species, and 



therefore type. 



Used in same manner by Stephens (1850) and Kirby (1858). See 

 also Mellicta.
