GENERIC NAMES OF BUTTERFLIES ur 



CHI LEA Billberg, 1820, Ennm. Ins. Mus. Billb.: 79. Type-species through Section (i) (re- 

 placement names) of Article 67 : Papilio celtis Laicharting, 1782, in Fuessly, Archiv Insek- 

 tengesch., Heft 2 (4) : 1, pi. 8, figs 1-3. 



The name Chilea was proposed by Billberg as a replacement for Libythea Fabricius, 1807. 

 This action was entirely uncalled-for, as the name Libythea Fabricius is an available name, not 

 in need of replacement. The name Chilea Billberg is thus invalid, as a junior objective 

 synonym of Libythea Fabricius.

 Subsequent Spelling of Chionobas Boisduval, [1833]). 



CHIONANEMA Ureta, 1953, Bol. Mus. nac. Hist. nat. Chile 26 : 66. Type-species by original 

 designation : Hypsochila (Chionanema) penai Ureta, 195.5, ibid. 26 : 66, 67, pi. 1, fig. 3 ;

CHIONOBAS Boisduval, [1833], Icon. hist. Lipid. Europe 1 (15/16) : [82. Type-species by 



selection by Blanchard (1840, Hist. nat. Ins. 3 : 457) : Papilio aello Hiibner, [1803-1804], 

 Samml. exot. Schmett. : pi. Pap. 102, figs 519, 520 <y, 521 



The nominal species Papilio aello is currently considered subjectively on taxonomic grounds 

 to represent the same taxon as that represented by the older-established nominal species 

 Papilio glacialis Moll, 1785 (in Schrank & Moll, Naturh. Hriefe Oesterreich 1 : 102). 



CHIROSA Moore, 1883, Proc. zool. Soc. Lnnd. 1883 : 284. Type-species by original designation:

CHIROSIA Sharp, [1904], in Zool. Rec. 39 (year 1902) (Ins.) : 205 (an Incorrect Subsequent 

 Spelling of Chirosa Moore, 1883).

CHITORIA Moore, [1896], Lep. ind. 3 (25) : 10. Type-species by original designation :

 (i) (replacement names) of Article 67 : Eogenes alcides var. lesliei Evans, 191 2, J. Bombay 

 nat. Hist. Soc. 21 (3) : 100. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species-group unit which is the type-species of the 

 present genus, though (as noted above) originally described as belonging to the subspecies- 

 category, is currently treated on taxonomic grounds as being a full species. 



CHITTIRA Moore, [1880], Lep. Ceylon 1 (1) : 8. Type-species by original designation : 

 Danais fumata Butler, 1866, Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1866 : 52. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Danais fumata is currently treated subjec- 

 tively on taxonomic grounds as being the same as that represented by the nominal species 

 Danais laprobana Felder (C.) & Felder (R.), [1865], Reise Fregatte " Novara ", Lep. Rhop. 

 (2) : 349, pi. 42, fig. 4.
