126 FRANCIS HEMMING 



Hayward introduced the name Cordillana as a replacement for the older-established name 

 Andinus Hayward, 1940, which he erroneously believed was invalid under the Law of Homo- 

 nymy. 



When introducing the name Cordillana, Hayward designated Andinus venustus as type- 

 species. That species was however automatically the type-species of Cordillana, since it is 

 the type-species of Andinus which Cordillana was established to replace. 



Since Andinus is a nomenclatorially available name, Cordillana, introduced as a replace- 

 ment for it, is invalid as a junior objective synonym. 



COREANA Tutt, [1907], Nat. Hist. Brit. Butts 2 : 276. Type-species by original designation : 

 Thecla raphaelis Oberthur, 1880, Etud. ent. 5 : 20, pi. 5, fig. 1 <J. 



CORECALLA Rober, [1916], in Seitz, Grosschmett. Erde 5 : 501. Type-species by selection by 

 Hemming (1934, Gen. Names hoi. Butts 1 : 85) : Papilio clymena Cramer, [1775], Uitl. 

 Kapellen 1 (2) : 38, pi 24, figs E, F. 



The name Corecalla Rober is invalid, for by the type-selection made in 1934 't became a 

 junior objective synonym of Diaethria Billberg, 1820. 



CORONE Mabille, 1878, Petites Nouvelles ent. 2 (190) : 205. Type-species by selection by 

 Kirby ([1880], in Zool. Rec. 15 (year 1878) (Ins.) : 189) : Corone ismenoides Mabille, 1878, 

 loc. cit. 2 (190) : 205. 



The generic name Corone Mabille is invalid, as it is a junior homonym of Corone Kaup, 

 1829 (Skizz. Europ. Thierr. : 99) and of Corone Morris, 1837 (in Wood, Naturalist 2 (9) : 123). 



The nominal species Corone ismenoides is currently treated subjectively on taxonomic 

 grounds as representing the same taxon as that represented by the nominal species Hesperia 

 sperthias Felder (C), 1862. The latter, as has been explained in the note on Cephrenes 

 Waterhouse & Lyall, 1914 (of which it is the type-species) is currently treated subjectively as 

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

 Hesperia augiades Felder (C), i860. 



CORRACHIA Schaus, 1913, Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1913 (3) : 351. Type-species by original 

 designation : Corrachia leucoplaga Schaus, 1913, ibid. 1913 (3) : 351, pi. 53, fig. 1. 



CORTICEA Evans, 1955, Cat. amer. Hesp. Brit. Mus. 4 : 46, 63. Type-species by original 

 designation : Hesperia corticea Plotz, 1883, Stett. ent. Ztg 44 : 56. 



CORYBANTES Hiibner, [1819], Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (7) : 101. 



None of the six nominal species placed in this genus by Hiibner is a butterfly. 



CORYBAS Westwood, [1850], in Doubleday, Gen. diurn. Lep. (2) : 252. Type-species by 

 selection by Hemming (1941, /. Soc. Bibl. nat. Hist. 1 1426 ; corrigendum page 470) : Papilio 

 tiphus Linnaeus, 1758, Syst. Nat. (ed. 10) 1 : 485. 



The name Corybas was published by Westwood as " Corybas Boisd. MS." in the synonymy 

 of Pyrrhogyra Hiibner, [18 19]. At a time when there was no provision in the Code defining 

 the status of names published in synonymies, I made the foregoing type-selection for Corybas, 

 in order to secure for it a definite position in the nomenclatorial system. This matter was 

 however finally settled in the revised Code which provides (Article 11(d)) that the publication 

 of a name in a synonymy does not confer upon that name the status of availability. The 

 name Corybas Westwood is therefore an invalid name. 



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

 subjectively on taxonomic grounds as being the same as that represented by the nominal 

 species Papilio neaerea Linnaeus, 1758 (loc. cit. 1 : 479). As names published on the same date 

 and in the same work the specific names tiphus and neaerea depend for their relative precedence 

 upon the choice of the First Reviser. This choice appears to have first been made by Auri- 

 villius in 1882 (K. svenska VetenskAkad. Handl., Stockholm Bd 19 (No. 5) : 97) when he 

 adopted the specific name naearea Linnaeus, sinking tiphus Linnaeus as a junior synonym of 

 that name.
