Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The type-species of this genus is usually treated subjectively on taxonomic grounds to be congeneric with Papilio palemon Cramer, [1777], the type-species of Phocides Hübner, [1819] (loc. cit. (7) : 103). On this basis the names Erycides and Phocides are subjective synonyms of one another and as they were published in the same work on the same date, the relative precedence to be accorded to them depends on the choice made by the First Reviser. This was Godman & Salvin who in 1893, Biol. centr.-amer., Lep. Rhop. 2 : 292 adopted the name Phocides, sinking Erycides as a junior synonym. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
