Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The name Dryas of Hübner's Tentamen is invalid, because the Tentamen has been rejected for nomenclatorial purposes by the Commission by the ruling given in its Opinion 97 (1926, Smithson. miscell. Coll. 73 (No. 4) : 19-30 ; republished in facsimile in 1958 (Opin. int. Comm. zool Nom. 1 (B) : 355 - 366). By a ruling given by the Commission in Opinion 278 (1954, loc. Cit. 6 : 135-178) the name Dryas Hübner, [1806] (of the Tentamen) was placed on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Generic Names in Zoology as Name No. 75. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
