PAREBA Doubleday, [1848], Gen. diurn. Lep. (1) 1142. Type-species by monotypy : Papilio 

 vesta Fabricius, 1787, Mantissa Ins. 2 : 14. 



The name Papilio vesta Fabricius is invalid, as it is a junior homonym of Papilio vesta 

 Cramer, [1777] (Uitl. Kapellen 2 (10) : 33). 



The oldest available name subjectively applicable to the type-species of this genus is 

 Telchinia issoria Hiibner, [8819] (Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (2) : 27), a nominal species based on 

 the specimen figured by Cramer in [1780] (Uitl. Kapellen 4 (25) : 17, pi. 298, figs A, B, C) 

 and at that time misidentified by that author as Papilio terpsicore Linnaeus, 1758 (Sysl. 

 Nat. (ed. 10) 1 : 466). 



PARELODINA Bethune-Baker, 1904, Novit. zool. 11 : 368. Type-species by original desig- 

 nation : Parelodina aroa Bethune-Baker, 1904, ibid. 11 : 368. 



PARELODINA Fruhstorfer, [1910], in Seitz, Grossschmett. Erde 9 : 123. Type-species by 

 selection by Klots (1931, Ent. amer. (n.s.) 12 (3) : 54) : Parelodina anticyra Fruhstorfer, 

 [1910], in Seitz, ibid. 9 : 123. 



This name published by Fruhstorfer for a genus of Pierids is invalid, as it is a junior 

 homonym of the same name published by Bethune-Baker for a genus of Lycaenids in 1904 

 in the serial cited immediately above. In 1914 Fruhstorfer (as has already been shown) 

 replaced this name by the name Elodinesthes. 



PARERIBOEA Roepke, 1938, Rhop. javan. (3) : 346. Type-species by selection by Hemming 

 (1964, Annot. lep. (4) : 126) : Papilio athamas Drury, [1773], III. nat. Hist. 1 : index et 5, 

 pi. 2, fig. 4 (2 figs). 



The name Pareriboea was published by Roepke without a designated type-species. 

 Accordingly, as this name was published after the end of 1930, it is automatically invalid 

 under Article 13(b) of the Code. 



In order to provide this name with a definite position in the literature of the group, I 

 selected Papilio athamas Drury as type-species ; this selection makes Pareriboea a junior 

 subjective synonym of Polyura Billberg, 1820, according to current taxonomic ideas. 



PARERONIA Bingham, 1907, Fauna Brit. Ind., Butts 2 : 276. Type-species through 

 Section (i) (replacement names) of Article 67 : Papilio Valeria Cramer, [1776], Uitl. Kapellen 

 1 (8) : 133, pi. 75, fig. A. 



Bingham published the name Pareronia as a replacement for the name Valeria Horsfield, 

 [1829], which he erroneously rejected on the ground of the tautonymy between that name 

 and the specific name of its type-species. Two attempts were made to publish a series of 

 volumes relating to the butterflies in the Fauna of British India, Bingham being the author 

 of the first attempt (which was never completed) and Talbot, the author of the second attempt 

 (also never finished). This is why, in order to avoid confusion, the Bingham volumes are 

 treated as the First Edition and the Talbot volumes as the Second Edition, although in fact 

 apart from the title these are entirely independent works, having no connection with one 

 another. 

 PARHESTINA Moore, [1896], Lep. ind. 3 (26) : 34. Type-species through Section (i) (replace- 

 ment names) of Article 67 : Apatura japonica Felder (C.) & Felder (R.), 1862, Wien. ent. 

 Monats. 6 : 27. 



Moore introduced the name Parhestina as a replacement for the name Diagora Snellen, 

 1894, which he rejected in the erroneous belief that it was invalid as a junior homonym of the 

 name Diagoras Stal, 1877 (Ann. Soc. ent. Belg. 20, C.R. : lxvi), the name of a genus in the 

 Order Orthoptera. At the time when Moore introduced this replacement name, there was 

 considerable doubt as to the conditions in which any given pair of generic names should be 

 treated as being homonyms of one another, but the difficulties arising from this cause were 

 set at rest on the introduction of the present " One-Letter-Difference " rule (Article 56(a)). 



Normally, a replacement genus takes automatically as its type-species the species, whatever 

 it may be, which is the type-species of the genus which it replaces. In the present case 

 however the genus replaced (Diagora Snellen) was without a type-species at the time when
