Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- Cramer gave four figures of what he called Papilio fatima ; of these he considered the first two (figs A, B) represented the male, the other two (figs C, D) the female. Westwood in 1851 (in Doubleday, Gen. diurn. Lep. (2) : 447) recognized that the taxon figured as figs C & D was not the same as that figured as A & B ; he retained the name Papilio fatima for the taxon figured as figs A & B, while establishing a new nominal species, which he named Emesis fatimella for that represented by figs C & D. The arrangement made by Westwood was accepted as constituting a First Reviser selection by Kirby in 1871 (Syn. Cat. diurn. Lep. : 212) and most subsequent authors, though a few later authors took the opposite view, that is, they applied the name Papilio fatima to the species figured by Cramer as figs C & D on his plate 271, named Emesis fatimella by Westwood. A firm foundation for Westwood's arrangement was provided by the lectotype-selection here made in above paragraph. The taxon represented by the nominal species Papilio fatima Cramer is currently treated as being congeneric with that represented by the nominal species Emesis fatimella Westwood, and accordingly no change at the genus-name level was caused by the lectotype-selection made for Papilio fatima Cramer, even for those who have misinterpreted that nominal species as being the same as that represented by Emesis fatimella Westwood. The name Papilio fatima Cramer is currently treated on taxonomic grounds as being a junior subjective synonym of Papilio census Linnaeus, 1767 (Syst. Nat. (ed. 12) 1 (2) : Errata). Another name which is currently treated subjectively as a junior synonym of Papilio cereus Linnaeus is Hesperia ovidius Fabricius, 1793, the name of the type-species of the genus Emesis Fabricius, 1807, in which therefore both the taxa discussed in the present note are currently placed. On the basis of the taxonomic views set out above, the name Nelone Boisduval is currently treated as a junior subjective synonym of Emesis Fabricius. [It must be noted in passing that for some inexplicable reason the name Nelone Boisduval has been misused by some authors as though it were a senior subjective synonym of Exoplysia Godman & Salvin, [1886]. Cowan (1970: 52) stated:- Exoplysia to read - Exoplisia. Particulars of this misusage are given in the note on that generic name. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
