| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- [Adolias siva Westwood, [1850].] A nominal species established as a replacement for Acontia doubledaii Westwood, 1848, Cabinet orient. Ent. : 76, pl. 37, fig. 4), the name of that nominal species being a secondary homonym in the genus Adolias Boisduval of the name Adolias doubledaii Gray (G. R.), [1846] (Descr. figs. lep. Ins. Nepal : 13, pl. 13, 2 figs). The two species discussed above are not currently regarded as being congeneric with one another : Acontia doubledaii Westwood (i.e. Adolias siva Westwood) is accepted as representing a taxonomically valid species and is the type-species of the genus Neurosigma Butler ; Adolias doubledaii Gray, on the other hand, is currently placed in the genus Euthalia Hübner, where the taxon which it represents is identified with the taxon represented by the older-established nominal taxon Adolias patala Kollar, [1844] (in Hügel's Kashmir 4 (2) : 435). Thus, the specific names doubledaii Westwood, 1848, and doubledaii Gray, [1846], are not secondary homonyms according to current taxonomic ideas. Under the current revised Code (Article 59 (c)) a name rejected as a secondary homonym prior to 1960 is not subject to revival when on taxonomic grounds the taxa bearing the names in question are no longer regarded as being congeneric with one another. Accordingly, the replacement name siva Westwood, [1850], is the valid specific name for the type-species of the present genus. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
