Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- Following upon an invalid type-selection made by Scudder in 1875 (Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 145) the nominal species Papilio dubius Stoll was for long treated erroneously as being the type-species of the genus Coeliades Hübner, 1818. Attention was drawn to this mistake of Scudder's by myself in 1935 (Trans. R. ent. Soc. Lond. 83 : 436) when I selected Papilio forestan Stoll, [1782], to be the type-species of Coeliades Hübner. As a result of this correction, the nominal species Papilio dubius Stoll was left without a nomenclatorially available name. It was to make good this deficiency that in the following year Evans introduced the name Dubiella. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). See images at Butterflies of America where it is treated in the Hesperiinae : Calpodini.
