to protect the position, I therefore made a First Reviser choice in 1964 (Annot. lep. (3) : 77), 

 giving precedence to the name Chazara Moore over the name Philareta Moore. 



CHEIMAS Thieme, 1907, Berl. ent. Z. 51 (2) : 175. Type-species by original designation : 

 Oxeoschistus opalinus Staudinger, 1897, Iris 10 : 145-146, pi. 5, fig. 10. 



CHENDRANA Moore, [1898], Lep. ind. 3 (32) : 146. Type-species by original designation : 

 Athyma pravara Moore, 1857, in Horsfield & Moore, Cat. lep. Ins. Mus. East India Coy 

 (1) : 173, pi. 5a, fig. 4. 



When introducing this genus, Moore designated a type-species but did not provide a 

 generic diagnosis. Later in the same year ([1898], ibid. 3 (33) : 182) he made good this omis- 

 sion. 



CHERITRA Moore, [1881], Lep. Ceylon 1 (3) : 109. Type-species by original designation : 

 Myrina jafra Godart, [1824], Ency. me'th. 9 (Ins.) (2) : 593. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Myrina jafra is currently treated subjectively 

 on taxonomic grounds as a subspecies of the taxon represented by the nominal species Hes- 

 peria freja Fabricius, 1793, {Ent. syst. 3 (1) : 263). 



CHERITRELLA de Niceville, 1887, Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1887 : 456. Type-species by 

 monotypy : Cheritrella truncipennis de Niceville, 1887, ibid. 1887 : 456, pi. 39, figs 3 $, 

 4o*. 



CHERSONEA Rober, [1888], in Schatz, in Staudinger & Schatz, Exot. Schmett. Bd 1, Th. 

 2 (4) : 154, 156 (an Incorrect Subsequent Spelling of Chersonesia Distant, 1883). 



CHERSONESIA Distant, 1883, Rhop. malayana : 86, 142. Type-species by original designa- 

 tion : Cyrestis rahria Moore, 1857, in Horsfield & Moore, Cat. lep. Ins. Mus. East India 

 Coy (1) : 147, pi. 3a, fig. 2. 



CHILADES Moore, [1881], Lep. Ceylon 1 (2) : 76. Type-species by original designation : 

 Papilio laius Stoll, [1780], in Cramer, Uitl. Kapellen 4 (27) : 62, pi. 319, figs D, E. 



CHILARGYNNIS Bryk, 1944, Ark. Zool. 36A (No. 1) : 8. Type-species by original designation : 

 Papilio cytheris Drury, [1773], ///. nat. Hist. 2 : index et 7, pi. 4, figs 3, 4. 



This generic name is invalid, as it is a junior objective synonym of Yramea Reuss, 1920. 



CHILASA Moore, [1881], Lep. Ceylon 1 (4) : 153. Type-species by original designation : 

 Papilio dissimilis Linnaeus, 1758, Syst. Nat. (ed. 10) 1 : 479. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Papilio dissimilis Linnaeus is currently 

 treated subjectively on taxonomic grounds as an infra-subspecific form of the taxon represen- 

 ted by the nominal species Papilio clytia Linnaeus, 1758 (loc. cit. (ed. 10) 1 : 479). As the 

 specific names clytia and dissimilis were published on the same date and in the same work 

 (indeed, on the same page), the relative precedence to be accorded to them depends upon the 

 choice of the First Reviser. That these names apply to different forms of the same specific 

 unit has long been the view of systematists in this group. It is not altogether easy however, 

 to determine who was strictly the First Reviser in this case, owing to the fact that far into the 

 XlXth century many leading authors treated zoological nomenclature as not beginning before 

 1767 and in consequence neglected the 10th edition of the Syst. Nat. However Butler in 

 1869 [Cat. diurn. Lep. Fabricius : 244) certainly acted as a First Reviser, according precedence 

 to the name clytia Linnaeus over the name dissimilis Linnaeus ; a similar choice was made by 

 Kirby in 1871 (Syn. Cat. diurn. Lep. : 532-533). This arrangement has been followed by all 

 subsequent authors. 



CHILDRENA Hemming, 1943, Proc. R. ent. Soc. Lond. (B) 12 : 30. Type-species through 

 Section (i) (replacement names) of Article 67 : Argynnis childreni Gray, 1831, Zool. 

 Miscell. (Gray) (1) : 33. 



This name was introduced as a replacement name for Eudryas Reuss, 1926, which is invalid 

 under the Law of Homonymy, three previous authors having used the word " Eudryas " as a 

 generic name.
