GENERIC NAMES OF BUTTERFLIES 199 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Papilio coronea Cramer is currently treated 

 subjectively on taxonomic grounds as a form of the taxon represented by the older-established 

 nominal species Papilio Java Linnaeus, 1769 (Amoen. acad. 7 : 504, nota). 



GNATHOTR1CHE Felder (C.) & Felder (R.), 1862, Wien. ent. Monats. 6 : 420, nota. Type- 

 species by monotypy : Euterpe exclamationis Kollar, [1849], Denkschr. Akad. Wiss. Wien. 

 1 : 359. pi. 45. fi gs 5- 6. 



GNESIA Doubleday, [1848], Gen. diurn. Lep. (1) : 141. Type-species by selection by Scudder 

 (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 179) : Papilio cirveis Drury, [1782], ///. 

 nat. Hist. 3 : index et 24, pi. 18, figs 5, 6. 



GNOPHODES Doubleday, [1849], Gen. diurn. Lep. (2) : pi. 61, fig. 2. Type-species by 

 monotypy : Gnophodes parmeno Doubleday, [1849], ibid. (2) : pi. 61, fig. 2. 



The text relating to Gnophodes was prepared by Westwood after Doubleday's death and was 

 not published until 1851 (loc. cit. (2) : 363). On this occasion also the above was the only 

 included species, apart from the citation of the name of an unpublished species. 



GODARTIA Lucas, 1843, Ann. Soc. ent. Fr. 11 (4) : 297. Type-species by monotypy : 

 Godartia madagascariensis Godart, 1843, ibid. 11 (4) : 299, pi. 12, Section No. 2, figs 

 1, 2, 3. 



Both the generic name Godartia and the binomen Godartia madagascariensis appeared in 

 print twice before being published by Lucas (as shown above) in Part 4 of volume 11 of the 

 Annates, which appeared in October 1843. On each of these occasions however these names 

 appeared as nornina nuda in anonymous notices included in the Rev. zool. (Soc. Cuvier.). In 

 the first, which was published in December 1842 (loc. cit. 5 : 390), an account was given in a 

 communication that Lucas had made to the Entomological Society of France, in which the 

 reviewer stated that Lucas had introduced a new species under the above name. In his notice 

 the reviewer misspelled the generic name as Godardia, and it was to correct this mistake that 

 in January 1843 (loc. cit. 6 : 32) he published his second note. These references are mentioned 

 here solely because one or other has occasionally been cited as the place where these names were 

 first published although on neither occasion were the requirements of the code satisfied. 



GODMANFA Skinner & Ramsden, 1923, Proc. Acad. nat. Sci. Philad. 75 : 321. Type-species 



by monotypy : Goniloba malitiosa Herrich-Schaeffer, 1865, CorrespBl. zool.-min. Ver. Regens- 



burg 19 : 54. 



The name Godmania Skinner & Ramsden is invalid, ;is it is a junior homonym of Godmania 



Horvath, 1919 (Ann. Mus. Hungar. 17 : 211, 222). 

 GODYRIS Boisduval, 1870, Consid. Lipid. Guatemala : 33. Type-species by monotypy : 



Dircenna duillia Hewitson, 1854, Trans, ent. Soc. Lond. (2) 2 : 247, pi. 23, fig. 3. 

 GOMALIA Moore, 1879, Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1879 : 144. Type-species by monotypy : 



Gomalia albofasciata Moore, ibid. 1879 : 144. 



The Indian taxon represented by the nominal species Gomalia albofasciata Moore has been 



treated subjectively by some authors as a subspecies of the Tropical African taxon represented 



by the nominal species Pyrgns elma Trimen, 1862, Trans, ent. Soc. Lond. (3) 1 : 288. 



GONATOMYRINA Aurivillius, 1924, in Seitz, Macrolep. 13 : 422. Type-species by mono- 

 typy : Papilio lara Linnaeus, 1764, Mus. L. Ulr. : 320 



GONELILIA Shirozu & Yamamoto, 1956, Sieboldia 1 (4) : 339, 348 (an Incorrect Original 

 Spelling of Gonerilia Shirozu & Yamamoto, 1956). 



GONEPTERYX [Leach], [1815], Brewster's Edinburgh Ency. 9 (1) : 127. Type-species by 

 monotypy : Papilio rhamni Linnaeus, 1758, Syst. Nat. (ed. 10) 1 : 470. 



If the ordinary rules in the Code had been permitted to apply in this case, the name Gonep- 

 teryx [Leach] would have been invalid as a junior objective synonym of Colias Fabricius, 

 1807. The transfer of the name Colias from the " Clouded Yellows " (" Sulphurs ") to the 

 " Brimstones " and the consequent disappearance of the name Gonepteryx in synonymy would 

 have created such extremely serious confusion and misunderstanding that in 1934 ^ was
