Linnaeus had been validly selected as the type-species of Issoria by Scudder as far back as 

 i875-

RAYWARDIA Tutt, [1908], Nat. Hist. Brit. Butts 2 : 484. Type-species through Section (i) 

 (replacement names) of Article 67 : Papilio telicanus Lang, 1789, Verz. Schmett. Gegend 

 Augsburg (ed. 2) : 47. 



The portion of volume 2 of Tutt's work containing the name Raywardia appeared in April 

 1908 ; the same name was published as new by Tutt for a second time two months later 

 (June 1908, Ent. Rec. 20 (6) : 143). 



The name Raywardia was introduced by Tutt as a replacement for the name Langia Tutt 

 [1906], which is invalid under the Law of Homonym}'. Tutt did not realize when he intro- 

 duced the name Langia in 1906 for Papilio telicanus Lang that that species was already the 

 type-species of a genus bearing an available name, namely Syntarucus Butler [1901], and 

 therefore that his name Langia was not required, it being a junior objective synonym of 

 Syntarucus Butler. Its replacement Raywardia Tutt is objectively invalid for the same reason. 



The taxon represented by the nominal species Papilio telicanus Lang is currently treated 

 subjectively on taxonomic grounds as being either the same as, or as a subspecies of, the 

 taxon represented by the older-established nominal species Papilio pirithous Linnaeus, 1767 

 (Syst. Nat. (ed. 12) 1 (2) : 790).

REMELANA Distant [Aug. 1884, Rhop. malayana : 244, 246 (invalid under Article 11(d)]. 

 Distant introduced this name as " Remelana M.S." in the synonymy Tajuria Moore, 

 [1881], where therefore it will need to stand as an objectively invalid junior synonym.

The name Remella was introduced as a replacement for Perimeles Godman, [1900], which is 

 invalid under the Law of Homonymy.
