[16]). Under Article 69 (a) (i) a nominal species, the name of which is cited in synonymy in the foregoing manner at the time of the establishment of a nominal genus ranks as an originally included nominal species. Thus, Scudder's selection of Papilio rhea as type-species was perfectly valid.\r\n\r\nThe name Papilio rhea Cramer is invalid, because it is a junior homonym of the name Papilio rhea Poda, 1761 (Ins. Mus. graec. : 66). It is considered subjectively on taxonomic grounds that the oldest available name subjectively applicable to the taxon named Papilio rhea Cramer is Nereis thamar H\u00fcbner, [1806], with which, already noted, Papilio rhea Cramer was synonymized by H\u00fcbner.\r\n\r\nThe taxon represented by Nereis thamar H\u00fcbner is currently treated subjectively as being a subspecies of the taxon represented by the older-established nominal species Papilio sara Fabricius, 1793 (Ent. syst 3 (1) : 167).\r\n\r\nThe name Sicyonia H\u00fcbner is of no practical value to lepidopterists as according to current taxonomic ideas it is no more than a junior subjective synonym of the name Heliconius Kluk, 1802. On the other hand, there a later name consisting of the same word - Sicyonia Milne Edwards (H.), 1830 which applies to a well-known genus of Penaeid prawns. In order to validate this name in the Decapoda, the Commission in its Opinion 382 (1956, Opin. int. Comm. zool. Nom. 12 : 43-58) used its Plenary Powers to suppress the generic name Sicyonia H\u00fcbner for the purposes, both of the Law of Priority and of the Law of Homonymy, at the same time placing that name on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Generic Names in Zoology as Name No. 380.\r\n\r\nThe higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).","Memo_Links":["http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/search?searchTerm=SICYONIA","http://www.ucl.ac.uk/taxome/gbn/Lamas_Genera_04ii08.xls","http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/127039","http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nymphalidae"],"Number":26896.0,"Of_Value":null,"Page":"13","Page_Comment":null,"Part":null,"Ref_Id":2840.0,"Senior_Syn":"HELICONIUS","Senior_Syn_Author":"Kluk","Senior_Syn_Of":null,"Senior_Syn_Page":"82","Senior_Syn_Year":"1780","Series":null,"Status":"Suppressed name","Subfamily":"Heliconiinae","Subtribe":null,"Superfamily":"Papilionoidea","Tribe":"Heliconiini","Type_Comments":null,"Type_Country":"See BHL scanned Type-species page","Type_Depository":null,"Type_Des":"by subsequent designation by","Type_Des_Author":"Scudder","Type_Des_Bhl_Page":"http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/22173#page/276/mode/2up","Type_Des_Comment":null,"Type_Des_In":null,"Type_Des_In_Author":null,"Type_Des_Journal":"Proc. amer. acad.
