| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- This well-recognized genus remained without a name until in 1934 I established the nominal genus Vagrans for it, with Papilio egista Cramer as type-species. Previously, mainly through the action of Moore in 1900 (Lep. ind. 4 (46) : 202) in stating that Papilio egista was the type-species of Issoria Hübner, [1819], this genus was widely known by that generic name. Moore's action was entirely misconceived because as far back as 1875 (Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 198) Scudder had validly selected as the type-species of Issoria the entirely different Argynnid species Papilio lathonia Linnaeus, 1758. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
