OENEIS Hiibner, [1819], Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (4) : 58. Type-species by selection by Butler 

 (1868, Ent. mon. Mag. 4 : 196) : Papilio noma Thunberg, 1791, Ins. suec. (2) : 36, pi. 

 [unnumbered], fig. 11 (2 figs). 



OENIDES Mabille, 1904, in Wytsman's Gen. Ins. 17 (C) : 178. Type-species by monotypy : 

 Hesperia vulpina Felder (C.) & Felder (R.), [1867], Reise Fregatte " Novara ", Lep. Rhop. 

 (3) : 514. Pi- 7°. figs 1, 2. 



OENOMAUS Hiibner, [1819], Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (5) : 76. Type-species by selection by 

 Scudder (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 231) : Papilio ortygnus Cramer, 

 i 1 !!^' Uitl. Kapellen 3 (21) : 84, pi. 243, fig. B. 



OENUS Schaus, 1913, Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1913 (3) : 363 (an Incorrect Subsequent Spelling of 

 OEONUS Godman, [1900]). 



OEONUS Godman, [1900], in Godman & Salvin, Biol, centr .-amer . , Lep. Rhop. 2 : 539. 

 Type-species by monotypy : Oeonus pyste Godman, [1900], in Godman & Salvin, ibid., 

 Lep. Rhop. 2 : 540, pi. 98, figs 38-41 $. 



Godman stated that this genus was based on the characters given for " the single species 

 from Mexico ", i.e. Oeonus pyste, then described as new. He added that " Hesperia degener 

 Plotz from Venezuela probably belongs here " [i.e. in the genus Oeonus]. As Plotz's degener 

 is only doubtfully referred to the genus, it is ineligible for selection as type-species, and 

 accordingly Oeonus pyste, as the only species definitely placed in the genus is automatically 

 the type-species by monotypy. 



OERANE Elwes & Edwards, 1897, Trans, zool. Soc. Lond. 14 : 242. Type-species by selection 

 by Lindsey (1925, Ann. ent. Soc. Amer. 18 : 94) : Notocrypta ceaera de Niceville, 1891, 

 J . Bombay nat. Hist. Soc. 6 : 379, pi. G, fig. 27 $. 



OGYRIS Westwood, [1851], in Doubleday, Gen. diurn. Lep. (2) : pi. 75, fig. 8 [text published in 

 January 1852 [ibid. (2) : 472)]. Type-species by monotypy : Ogyris abrota Westwood, 

 [1851], in Doubleday, ibid. (2) : pi. 75, fig. 8. 



In the text published (as noted above) in January 1852 Westwood again placed in this 

 genus only Ogyris abrota, apart from a manuscript species (which he called idmo), which, 

 being undescribed, has no status in zoological nomenclature. 



OILEIDES Hiibner, [1825], Samml. exot. Schmett. 2 : pi. [151], [152]. Type-species by selec- 

 tion by Scudder (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 232) : Oileides zephodes 

 Hiibner, [1825], ibid. 2 : pi. [151]. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Oileides zephodes Hiibner is currently treated 

 subjectively on taxonomic grounds as being the same as that represented by the older- 

 established nominal species Papilio otreus Stoll, [1780] (in Cramer, Uitl. Kapellen 4 (28) : 78, 

 pi. 328, fig. F). 



OLERIA Hiibner, 1816, Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (1) : 9. Type-species by selection by Scudder 

 (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 232) : Papilio astrea Cramer, [1775], Uitl. 

 Kapellen 1 (2) : 33, pi. 22, fig. D. 



OLIGORIA Scudder, 1872, 4th Ann. Rep. Peabody Acad. Sci. 1871 : 82. Type-species by 

 original designation : Hesperia maculata Edwards, 1865, Proc. ent. Soc. Philad. 4 : 202, 

 pi. i. fig. 6 $. 



OLINA Doubleday, [1848], Gen. diurn. Lep. (2) : pi. 31, fig. 3. Type-species by monotypy : 

 Olina azeca Doubleday, [1848], ibid. (2) : pi. 31, fig. 3. [The text by Westwood ((2) : 408) 

 was published in July 1851]. 



The name Olina Doubleday is invalid, as it is a junior homonym of Olina Robineau-Des- 

 voidy, 1830 (Mim. presentes Acad. roy. Inst. France 2 : 812). It has been replaced by the 

 name Vila Kirby, 1871.
