Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- An Incorrect Subsequent Spelling of Panosmia Wood-Mason & de Niceville, 1886. Kirby did not regard himself as introducing this as a new generic name ; he attributed it to Moore, by whom however neither this name or any name resembling it was ever published, and this attribution must certainly have been due to inadvertence. It cannot be doubted that what Kirby was attempting to do was to cite the name Panosmia Wood-Mason & de Niceville, 1886, of which Papilio dasarada Moore, 1857, which he stated was the type-species, was one of the species originally included by Wood-Mason & de Niceville. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
