ERYTHIA Hiibner, [1819], Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (2) : 24. Type-species by selection by 

 Scudder (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Aci., Boston 10 : 168) : Papilio labdacus Stoll 

 [1780], in Cramer, Uitl. Kapellen 4 (28) : 90, pi. 336, figs G, H. 



Hiibner cited the above species as Erythia labdaca, citing immediately after that name the 

 above reference to labdacus in the Uitl. Kapellen. Sometimes Hiibner adopted a new variant 

 spelling for the name for some species, citing immediately after that variant spelling the name 

 in its original spelling, with its reference. There is however no reason to believe that this is 

 what he did on the present occasion, for in the case of adjectival specific names he had the 

 habit of changing the termination where that was necessary in order to make the word con- 

 cerned agree in gender with the name of the genus in which he placed the species concerned. 

 This is no doubt what he did on the present occasion, changing the name labdacus to labdaca 

 to make it agree in gender with the name Erythia which he used for the genus in which he 

 placed that species. (Actually, in making this change, Hiibner was in error, for the word 

 " Labdacus " is a Proper Name and not an adjective.) 



ESAKIOZEPHYRUS Shirozu & Yamamoto, 1956, Sieboldia 1 (4) : 376. Type-species by 

 original designation : Dipsas icana Moore, [1875], Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1874 (4) : 575, pi. 67,

ESOPTRIA Hiibner, [1819], Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (3) : 45. Type-species by selection by 

 Scudder (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 168) : Papilio bolina Linnaeus, 1758, 

 Syst. Nat. (ed. 10) 1 : 479. 



The type-species of the present species is currently treated subjectively on taxonomic 

 grounds as being congeneric with Papilio pipleis Linnaeus, 1758 (a taxon subjectively identi- 

 fied with Papilio pandarus Linnaeus, 1758), the type-species of Hypolimnas Hiibner, [1819]. 

 As the names Esoptria and Hypolimnas were published in the same work and on the same 

 date, the relative precedence to be accorded to them depends upon the choice of the First 

 Reviser. This choice was made in 1871 (Syn. Cat. diurn. Lep. : 225) by Kirby who adopted 

 the name Hypolimnas, sinking the name Esoptria as a synonym. 



ESTHEMOPHELES Rober, 1903, Stett. ent. Zlg 64 : 344. Type-species by original 



designation through Section (a) (i) (formula " gen. n., sp.n. ") of Article 68 ; Esthemopheles 



lamprolensis Rober, 1903, ibid. 64 : 344. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Esthemopheles lamprolensis Rober is currently 



considered subjectively on taxonomic grounds to be an infra-subspecific form of the taxon 



represented by the nominal species Uraneis ucubis Hewitson, [1870] (77/. exot. Butts 4 : [91], 



pi. [49], fig. 4)- 

 ESTHEMOPSIS Felder (C.) & Felder (R.), [1865], Reise Fregatte " Novara ", Lep. Rhop. (2) : 



306. Type-species by monotypy : Esthemopsis clonia Felder (C.) & Felder (R.), [1865], 



ibid. (2) : 306, pi. 38, figs 11, 12. 



ETEONA Doubleday, 1848, List Spec. lep. Ins. Brit. Mus., Appendix : 21. Type-species by 

 monotypy : Euterpe tisiphone Boisduval, [1836], (Roret's Suite a Buffon), Hist. nat. Ins. 

 Consid. gen. 1 (Lepid.) : 411. 



ETEONE Staudinger, [1887], in Staudinger & Schatz, Exot. Schmett. Bd 1 (Th. 1) (19) : 232 (an 

 Incorrect Subsequent Spelling of Eteona Doubleday, 1848). 



ETESIOLA US Stempffer & Bennett, 1959, Bull. Inst, franc. Afr. noire 21 (A) (1) : 319 

 Type-species by original designation : Iolaus catori Bethune-Baker, 1904, Ann. Mag. nat 

 Hist. (7) 14 : 233. 



The name Etesiolaus first appeared in print in 1958 (loc. cit. 20 (A) (4) : 1253) in a key to the 

 subgenera dealt with in that paper, but, as there published, this generic name was invalid, for 

 no type-species was designated, and indeed no species was cited at all.

 selection by Hemming (1941, /. Soc. Bibl. nat. Hist. 1 : 431) : Zeonia heliconides Swainson, 

 1833, Zool. III. (2) 3 : pi. in.
