NENNIUS Kirby, [1902], in Wytsman's facsimile ed., Hiibner, Samml. exot. Schmett., Addit. 

 Notes : 105. Type-species through Section (i) (replacement names) of Article 67 : Poly- 

 gonus lividus Hiibner, [1825], Samml. exot. Schmett. 2 : pi. [144].

 replacement name Nennius is invalid as a junior objective synonym.
