Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- Guerin's text relating to the type-species was not published until [1838], but in the meanwhile a description of "Anthocharis chilensis" [sic] had been published by Boisduval ([1836], (Roret's Suite à Buffon), Hist. nat. Ins., Consid. gén. 1 (Lépid.) : 566). Guerin's own description of this species, again under the name Pieris chiliensis, appeared in the same volume as that in which his plate showing this species had been issued ; the page concerned bore the number "174" but, as reference to the volume shows, this was a misprint for "274". Cowan (1970: 46) stated:- (Pt. 2 Div. 1) to read - Atlas, [type-species part]. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). See images at Butterflies of America.
