| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- In the text of his work (: 272) Guérin quoted a note published by Boisduval in the Insectes section of the Voy. "Astrolabe" after the appearance of the plate on which Guérin had figured his new species Cleis posticalis, in which Boisduval stated that the taxon represented by this nominal species was "certainement une nocturne". Boisduval added that he had himself described the species concerned under the name Damias melaxanthe Boisduval, [1832] (in d'Urville, Voy. "Astrolabe", Ent. 1 (Lep. (1) : 260). Later in the Hist. Nat. (: 286) Guérin, commenting on Boisduval's note, stated that he was unable to accept the view there put forward. Boisduval was however perfectly right. Cleis is not a genus of butterflies. Cowan (1968: 12) stated:- CLEIS, line 1: "[1838] . . .Coy" should read; (1831) . . . Corv.. Cowan (1968: 17) stated:- Livraison (22) of the Corvette "Coquille" work, which included pl. 18, was published in 1831 (c.f. line 2 of entry), and the figure is adequate to define the genus (c.f. the case of Prothoe, List [Hemming, 1967] : 380) considering the period. Publication dates of the various Livraisons were listed on p.271, note 2. The date 1838 applies to Livraison 72 in which (p. 286) the textual description of the species appears. Guerin's name should also be inserted in line 2 of this entry, as author of Cleis posticalis, 1831. CLEIS was included within the subfamily CALLIDULIDAE: CALLIDULINAE by Minet, in Kristensen (1999). |
