Title :

Junior secondary homonyms no more: Several names revised and one protected (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae).


Abstract :

Recent taxonomic reorganization of Charaxini Guenée, 1865 by Bouyer, 2023 and Acraeini Boisduval, 1833 by Williams & Henning, 2023 has resulted in the splitting of two formerly very large genera into several smaller ones. Bouyer split Charaxes Ochsenheimer, 1816 into nine genera: Zingha Stoll, 1780; Charaxes Ochsenheimer, 1816; Eriboea Hübner, [1819]; Euxanthe Hübner, [1819]; Polyura Billberg, 1820; Viridixes Bouyer & Vingerhoedt, 2008; Setechin Bouyer, 2023; Ydeali Bouyer, 2023; and Laodice Bouyer, 2023 (now Eulaodice Bouyer, 2025). For their part, Williams & Henning split Acraea Fabricius, 1807 into seven genera: Acraea Fabricius, 1807; Actinote Hübner, [1819]; Telchinia Hübner, [1819]; Bematistes Hemming, 1935; Rubraea Henning, 1992; Stephenia Henning, 1992; and Tildia Williams & Henning, 2023. As a result of these changes, homonymy no longer applies to several names which are considered junior secondary homonyms, and their status must be revisited.
