Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The name of the type-species, Papilio melampus Stoll, is invalid, as it is a junior homonym of the name Papilio melampus Fuessly, 1775 (Verz. schweiz. Ins. : 31, pl. 1, fig. 6). The nominal species bearing the oldest available which is considered subjectively on taxonomic grounds to represent the same taxon as Papilio melampus Stoll is Thecla sorya Kollar, [1844] (in Hügel's Kashmir 4 (2) : 414, pl. 5, figs 1, 2). on this basis the type-species of this genus should therefore be known by the name sorya Kollar. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
