GENERIC NAMES OF Bl'TTERFLIES 157 



applied to the Delias species, but (b) that in the case of the Amaurid there was a junior 

 synonym of only slightly later date, available, namely damocles Fabricius, 1793. In these 

 circumstances it seemed clearly desirable that the specific name agialea Cramer should be 

 preserved for the Delias species in preference to the Amaurid and (as shown above) I therefore 

 made a First Reviser choice in this sense in 1964. Finally, it was noted that in the synonymy 

 of Papilio damocles given by Fabricius in 1793 on the first publication of that name there was 

 included a reference to Cramer's figure (fig. D) of the Amaurid Papilio egialea on his plate 192. 

 Accordingly, in order to restore the existing position, so far as possible, I selected the specimen 

 shown as fig. D on Cramer's plate 192 to represent the lectotype of the Amaurid species Papilio 

 egialea Cramer, and at the same time (1964) selected the lectotype of Papilio egialea Cramer 

 so established to represent the lectotype of the nominal species Papilio damocles Fabricius, 

 1793, these nominal species thus becoming identical with one another and their names 

 objective synonyms of each other. 



EGUMBIA Bethune-Baker, 1924, Ann. Mug. not. Hist. (<)) 14 : 135. Type-species by original 

 designation : Egumbia catori Bethune-Baker, 1924, ibid. (9) 14 : 135. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Egumbia catori Bethune-Baker has been 

 identified subjectively by Stempffer with that represented by the nominal species Epitola 

 ernesti Karsch, 1895 (Ent. Xaclir. 21 : 290). 



EICOCHRYSOPS Bethune-Baker, 1924, Ann. Mag. not. Hist. (9) 14 : 132. Type-species by 

 original designation : Eicochrysops eicotrochilus Bethune-Baker, i<)24, ibid. (<)) 14 : 132. 



EIEIDES Hiibner, 1821, Index exol. I.cp. : [3] (an Incorrect Subsequent Spelling of Eueides 

 Hiibner, 18 16). 



EISIDES Scudder, 1882, Nomencl. zool. : ii<> (an Unjustified Emendation <>f Eueides Hiibner, 

 1816). 



Scudder made it clear that the spelling Eisides was a deliberate emendation by himself of 

 the name Eueides Hiibner (misspelled Eieides by Scudder) by citing that name in brackets 

 (parentheses) after the spelling Eisides, at the same time giving a reference (though in incom- 

 plete form) to the place where Hiibner's name Eueides was published. 



ELAPHROTIS Stichcl, 1911, in Wytsman's Gen. Ins. 112 (B) : 294. Type-species by original 

 designation : Papilio thelephus Cramer, [1775', Uitl. Kapellen 1 (6) : 108, pi. 66, figs E, F. 

 For an understanding of the systematic position of this genus, the note given by way of 

 explanation regarding Echenais Hiibner, [1819] should be consulted. 



ELBELLA Evans, 1951, Cat. amer. Hcsp. lint. Mus. 1 : 4, 38. Type-species by original 

 designation: Pyrrhopyga [sic] scylla Menetries, 1855, Enuni. Corp. Aniiu. Mus. imp. 

 Acad. sci. petrop. (1) : 95, pi. 4, fig. 7. 



ELINA Blanchard, 1852, in Gay, Hist. fis. pol. Chile, Zool. 7 : 28. Type-species by selection 

 by Butler (1868, Ent. mon. Mag. 4 : 194) : Elina vanessoides Blanchard, 1852, in Clay, 

 ibid., Zool. 7 : 28, pi. 5, figs 5, 6.

 Type-species by selection by Butler (Cislula ent. 1 : 40) : Elodina therasia Felder (C.) &

ELODINESTHES Fruhstorfer, 1914, Ent. Rundschr. 31 (6) : 33. Type-species through 

 Section (i) (replacement names) of Article 67 : Parelodina anticyra Fruhstorfer, [1910], in 

 Seitz, Grosssckmett. Erde 9 : 123. 



Fruhstorfer introduced the name Elodinesthes as a replacement for Parelodina Fruhstorfer, 

 [1910], which is invalid as a junior homonym of Parelodina Bethune-Baker, 1904. 



ELPHINSTONIA Klots, 1930, Bull. Brooklyn ent. Soc. 25 : 87. Type-species by original 

 designation : Anthocharis charlonia Donzel, 1842, Ann. Soc. ent. Fr. 11 (2) : 197,
