Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The taxon represented by the nominal species Hesperia ovidius Fabricius is currently treated subjectively on taxonomic grounds as being the same as that represented by the older-established nominal species Papilio cereus Linnaeus, 1767 (Syst. Nat. (ed. 12) 1 (2) : Errata), a nominal species established as a replacement of Papilio caeneus Linnaeus, 1767, ibidem. 1 (2) : 796, a nominal species bearing a name which is invalid under the Law of Homonymy). The name Tapina Billberg was introduced quite unnecessarily as a replacement of the name Emesis Fabricius, 1807, to which it falls as a junior objective synonym. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
