Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- An Incorrect Subsequent Spelling of Thymelicus Hübner, [1819]. Formerly it seemed to me - incorrectly, as I now see - that this might have been published by Stephens independently as the name of a new genus and, I selected (1933, Entomologist 66 : 200) Papilio acteon Rottemburg, 1775, as type-species, my purpose being thereby to dispose of this name by making it a junior objective synonym of Thymelicus Hübner, [1819]. Cowan (1970: 56) stated:- 1875 to read - 1835, [genus author]. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
