Barnes & Lindsey (1922, Ann. ent. Soc. Amer. 15 : 92) argued that under a ruling given by 

 the Commission in its Opinion 6 (1910, Smithson. Publ. 1938 : 7-9; facsimile published in 1958 

 (Opin. int. Comm. zool. Nom. 1 (B) : 7-9) Papilio astarte Cramer had automatically become 

 the type-species of Callicore Hiibner, when in 1820 Billberg (Enum. Ins. Mus. Billb. : 78) 

 made Papilio clymena Cramer, [1775], the only other originally included species in Callicore, 

 the type-species of a new monobasic genus to which he gave the name Diaethria. When 

 the rulings given in interpretative Opinions previously rendered by the Commission were 

 reviewed, it was decided not to include in the revised Code a provision embodying the Ruling 

 given in Opinion 6 in 1910. Accordingly, the argument in the present case advanced by 

 Barnes & Lindsey in 1925 is no longer valid. Fortunately, (as shown above), Scudder, the 

 first author to select a type-species for this genus, selected the same species [Papilio astarte 

 Cramer) as would have been the type-species if the Ruling given in Opinion 6 had still been in 

 force.

Linnaeus, 1767, Syst. Nat. (ed. 12 1 (2) : 764. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Papilio eubule Linnaeus is currently treated 



as a subspecies of the taxon represented by the older-established nominal species Papilio 



sennae Linnaeus, 1758 (Syst. Nat. (ed. 10) 1 : 470). 



CALLIDULA Hiibner, [1819], Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (5) : 66. Type-species by selection by 

 Hemming (1943, Proc. R. ent. Soc. Lond. (B) 12 : 26) : Callidula pyrame Hiibner, [1819], 

 ibid. (5) : 66). 



The spelling pyrame introduced by Hiibner is an emendation of the spelling pyramns. 

 Hiibner, when bringing forward this name, cited the name pyramns as used for this species by 

 Stoll (i.e. Papilio pyramus Stoll, [1790] (Aanhangs. Werk Uitl. Kapellen Pieter Cramer : 145, 

 pi. 32, fig. 3). Stoll did not regard this as a new name of his own, giving instead a reference to 

 Papilio pyramns Drury, [1782] (77/. nat. Ins. 3 : index et 32, pi. 23, figs 3, 4). Actually, it 

 was Fabricius in 1781 (Spec. Ins. 2 : 130) who first applied the name Papilio pyramns to the 

 present species. 



The name Papilio pyramus Fabricius is invalid, as it is a junior homonym of the older- 

 established name Papilio pyramus Cramer, [1779], (Uitl. Kapellen 3 (21) : 87), a name applied 

 to a Hesperiid. The next oldest name applied to this species appears to be the emended 

 name Callidula pyrame Hiibner, [1819], and, as an emendation is, under Article 33 (a) (ii) a 

 name possessing status in nomenclature as from its own date and authorship, it is available for 

 use for the present species. Accordingly, as the oldest such specific name for this species, it is 

 its valid specific name.

The name Calliparus Scudder is invalid as it is a junior objective synonym of Strymon 

 Hiibner, 1818, Zutr. z. Samml. exot. Schmett. 1 : 22, which has the same type-species.
