GENERIC NAMES OF BUTTERFLIES 319 



The name Ocalis Westwood, [1851], is invalid under Article 11(d) because it was published 

 in a synonymy, being placed by Westwood as " Ocalis Boisduval MS." in the synonymy of 

 Oressinoma Doubleday, [1849]. Further, even if this name had been validly published by 

 Westwood, it would have been invalid as a junior objective synonym of Oressinoma Doubleday. 



OCALIS Boisduval, 1870, Consid. Lipid. Guatemala : 63. Type-species by monotypy : 

 Oressinoma typhla Doubleday, [1849], Gen. (Hum. Lep. (2) : pi. 62, fig. 5 [text by Westwood 

 published in 1851 (loc. cit.) (2) : 372]. 



This is another of the numerous cases in which Boisduval put a manuscript name into 

 irregular circulation but did not publish it until many years later ; as will be seen from the 

 immediately preceding note, the name Oralis Boisduval was already in existence as a manu- 

 script name as far back as 1851, in which year it was invalidly published by Westwood in a 

 synonymy. As published by Boisduval in 1N70, the name Ocalis Boisduval is invalid as a 

 junior objective synonym of Oressinoma Doubleday, [1849]. 



OCELLA Evans, 1953, Cat. amer. Hesp. Brit. Mus. 3 : 11, 68 rype-species by original 

 designation : Cyclosemia albata Mabillc, 1888, Le .Xaturaliste (2) 2 : 265. 



OCHLODES Scudder, 1872, 4/// Ann. Rep. Peabody [cad. Set. 1871 : 78. Type-species by 

 original designation : Hesperia nemorum Boisduval, 1852, Ann Soc. ent. I'r (2) 10 : 314. 

 The type-species of this genus is confined to the Wan ti< Regit »n, and partly on this account 

 palaearctic lepidopterists long overlooked this name, applying to the Palaearctic species the 

 generic name Augiades Hubner, [1819]. This practice was entirely incorrect, being based 

 upon a complete misconception as to t lie type-species of that genus. By modern authors the 

 Palaearctic, as well as the Nearctic spei ies, are correctly referred to the genus Ochlodes 

 Scudder. 



OCHUS dc Xiccville, 1894, /. asiat. Sot Bengal, I't II, 63 (1) : 51. Type-species by original

 placement names) of Article 67 : Caecina calathana Hewitson, [868, Descr. One Hundred 

 new Spec. Hesp. (2) : 56. 



The name Ocyba was introduced by Lindsey as a replacement for Caecina Hewitson, 1868, 

 which is invalid under the Law of Homonymy. 



OCYBADISTES Heron, 1894, Ann. Mag. not. Hist. (6) 14 : 105. Type-species by original 

 designation : Ocybadistes walkeri Heron, 1894, ibid. (6) 14 : 106.

ODINA Mabille, 1891, Hull. C. R. Soc. ent. Belg. 1891 : cxiii. Type-species by monotypy : 

 Odina chrysomeloena Mabille, 1891, ibid. 1891 : cxiii. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Odina chrysomeloena Mabille is currently 

 treated as a subspecies of the taxon represented by the older-established nominal species 

 Plastingia hieroglyphica Butler, 1870 (Trans, ent. Soc. Lond. 1870 : 511). 



ODONTOPTILUM de Niceville, 1890, /. Bombay nat. Hist. Soc. 5 : 217. Type-species by 

 original designation : Achlyodes sura Moore, [1866], Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1865 (3) : 786. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Achlyodes sura Moore is currently identified 

 subjectively with that represented by the older-established nominal species Pterygospidea 

 angnlata Felder (C), 1862 (Verh. zool.-bot. Ges. Wien 12 : 488).
