ENANTIA Hiibner, [1819], Vevz. bekannt. Schmett. (6) : 96. Type-species by selection by 

 Scudder (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Set., Boston 10 : 162) : Papilio licinia Cramer, [1777], 

 Uitl. Kapellen 2 (13) : 90, pi. 153, figs E, F. 



ENDOPOGON Lacordaire, 1833, Ann. Soc. ent. Fr. 2 : 384. Type-species by selection by 

 Scudder (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 162) : Papilio sesostris Cramer, 

 [1779], Uitl. Kapellen 3 (18) : 34, pi. 211, figs F, G. 



Scudder erroneously supposed that this name had first been published in 1864 (Verh. zool.- 

 bot. Ges. Wien 14 : 292) by Felder (C.) & Felder (R.), and from the species placed in this genus 

 by those authors he selected Papilio sesostris Cramer to be the type-species. It so happened 

 that Papilio sesostris was one of the nominal species placed in the genus Endopogon Lacordaire, 

 1833, a taxon of the existence of which Scudder was unaware. When I considered this matter 

 in 1939 {Proc. R. ent. Soc. Lond. (B) 8 : 136) I took the view — in the absence of any provision 

 in the Code — that it would be illogical and confusing to accept as a valid type-selection for one 

 genus a selection made for another genus consisting of the same name. In order therefore 

 (as it seemed to me) to regularize the position, I thereupon selected Papilio sesostris to be the 

 type-species of Endopogon Lacordaire. In the revised Code published in 1961 a provision 

 (Article 67(g)) has been adopted under which a misconceived type-selection of the kind 

 discussed above is nevertheless to be accepted, provided that the species selected for the 

 later reputed genus was one of those included in the genus when first established. In the 

 present case therefore the selection of Papilio sesostris as type-species ranks from the action 

 of Scudder in 1875.

ENISPE Doubleday, [1848], Gen. diurn. Lep. (2) : pi. 40, fig. 2. Type-species by monotypy : 

 Adolias euthymius Doubleday, 1845, Ann. Mag. nat. Hist. 16 : 179. 



The relevant portion of the text was written by Westwood and was published in [1850] (in 

 Doubleday, loc. cit (2) : 292). In it also Adolias euthymius was the only species placed in the 

 genus Enispe. 



ENODIA Hiibner, [1819], Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (4) : 61. Type-species by selection by Scudder 

 (1872, \th Ann. Rep. Peabody Acad. Sci. 1871 : 26) : Oreas andromacha Hiibner, [1809],

ENOPE Moore, 1857, in Horsfield & Moore, Cat. lep. Ins. Mus. East India Coy (1) : 228. Type- 

 species thiough Section (1) (replacement names) of Article 67 by selection by Butler in 1868 

 (Ent. mon. Mag. 4 : 195) as the type-species of the replacement genus Neope Butler, 1867 : 

 Lasiommata (?) bhadra Moore, 1857, in Horsfield & Moore (loc. cit. (1) : 227). 



The name Enope Moore, 1857, is invalid, as it is a junior homonym of Enope Walker, 1854 

 (List Spec. lep. Ins. Brit. Mus. 1 : 208). It was replaced three times between 1866 and 1871, 

 namely by the names Neope Moore, [1866]; Neope Butler, 1867; Blanaida Kirby, 1871. The 

 name Neope Moore, [1866], is a nomenclatorially available name and is accordingly the oldest 

 available name for the present genus. 



Neither when Moore established the genus Enope in 1857 nor when he introduced the 

 replacement name Neope in 1866, did he designate a type-species. Nor was a type-species 

 designated by Butler when (in ignorance of Moore's use of the name Neope) he himself intro- 

 duced a replacement name consisting of the same word. Kirby also omitted to designate a 

 type-species when in 1871 he introduced the replacement name Blanaida. The first author to 

 designate a type-species for any of these objectively identical genera was Butler who in 1868 

 realized that Neope, as introduced by himself in the previous year (1867) was without a type- 

 species and made good that deficiency by selecting as the type-species the nominal species 

 Lasiommata bhadra Moore, one of the two originally included species of Enope Moore, 1857. 

 By this action of Butler's the above species became automatically the type-species of Enope 

 Moore, 1857, and of the replacement name Neope Moore, [1866].
