| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- Herrich-Schaeffer recognized only the above nominal species as belonging to this genus, but cited another specific name ("arcas (non Cram.")) as a synonym of the name of that species. Under Article 68 (c) of the Code the citation of a synonym in this way does not detract from the status of the genus concerned as having its type-species fixed by monotypy. Scudder (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. warts Sci., Boston 10 : 234) misread the original description of Orimba, thinking that Herrich-Schaeffer had included areas as the name of a taxonomically valid species and in consequence that Herrich-Schaeffer had included two - instead of only one - nominal species in this genus. No harm resulted from this mistake, for Scudder thereupon selected as the type-species the nominal species Orimba cataleuca, which, as already explained, was already the type-species by monotypy. Herrich-Schaeffer attributed the name Orimba to Boisduval, by whom in fact it had been published in 1854 (Bull. Soc. ent. Fr. 1854 : xxi). As there published, the name Orimba was a complete nomen nudum and accordingly possesses no status in zoological nomenclature. The taxon represented by the nominal species Orimba cataleuca Herrich-Schaeffer is currently treated subjectively on taxonomic grounds as being the same as that represented by the older-established nominal species Papilio epitus Cramer, [1780] (Uitl. Kapellen 3 (23) : 140, pl. 270, fig. C). The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
