| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- This is one of a number of curious cases in which Hübner appropriated as his own a generic name published by one of his predecessors and employed it in a totally different sense, in this instance for a genus belonging to a quite different family. The name Hesperia Hübner is invalid as a junior homonym of Hesperia Fabricius, 1793. Its type-species, it may be noted, is the type-species also of the later genus Phaenochitonia Stichel, 1910, a genus bearing a nonenclatorially available name. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). See images at Butterflies of America where it is treated in the Hesperiinae : Hesperiini. |
