GENERIC NAMES OF THECLINA, 467 
which he refers to his new genera are all at once recognisable from the localities 
and the authors’ names which in all cases he gives. It has been said elsewhere 
(Wals. and Durr., EK. M. M. p. 167, 1902) that ‘‘ it is a concession to the older 
authors that we accept a named but undescribed genus if its types are recognisa- 
able’. This seems to be a case in point. 
It is then further argued that we cannot be certain that Billberg correctly 
identified his species, and therefore we cannot accept his generic names, as we 
do not know whether the species he founded them on are the species he refers 
to. But this appears to be going a bit too far ; one must give him the benefit 
of the doubt at any rate. If we allowed this argument to stand Billberg is not 
the only author by a very long way whose work would have to be rejected.

The genus is, however, pre-occupied by CAMCHNA, Baly (Col. 1862), and must 
be dropped.

For some strange reason Hiibner later (Verz. bek. Schmett. p. 72, 1822) re- 
moved mopsus from Chrysophanus to Strymon (q. v.) replacing it by a number of 
other species which he had not originally included in the genus at all.

The name was proposed by Zincken for Ochsenheimer’s ‘family VIII (B) ’ 
which was the coppers, etc. The type was specified by Tutt (Ent. Ree. XVIII, 
p. 131, 1906).

The type was fixed by Kirby (Journ. Linn. Soe. Zool. X, p. 499, 1870) as, 
minima. As no action had been taken by any other author in the meantime, 
Kirby’s action must be upheld.
