Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The nominal genus Pavonia was established by Godart for the species included in the "deuxieme division" of the genus Morpho earlier in the Ency. méth. (i.e. on pages 437-438 and 446-455). The seventh of these species and (species No. 27 of the genus Morpho as a whole) was Papilio idomeneus Linnaeus, selected by myself in 1943 as the type-species of this genus. The name Pavonia Godart is invalid under the Law of Homonymy, being a junior homonym : (a) of Pavonia Lamarck, 1816 (Anim. sans Vertebr. 2 : 238), and (b) of Pavonia Hübner, [1819] (Verz. bekannt. Schmett. (10) : 157). Even if the name Pavonia Godart had not been invalid under the Law of Homonymy, it would nevertheless have been invalid, for it is a junior objective synonym of Aerodes Billberg, 1820. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
