Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- Tutt erroneously supposed that Ruralis had been introduced in a binominal sense by Barbut in 1781 (Gen. Ins. : 173) and that he had designated the above species as the type-species. In actual fact, Barbut, who was not a binominalist, did neither of these things. The name is attributable to Tutt, by whom it was first validly published. The name Ruralis Tutt is invalid, as it is a junior objective synonym of Thecla Fabricius, 1807. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
