(From: A Catalogue of the Butterflies of the United States and Canada, Jonathan P. Pelham) Genus Neophasia Behr, 1869 Trans. Am. Entomol. Soc. 2(3): 303. Type-species: Pieris menapia C. Felder & R. Felder, 1859, Wien. entomol. Monatschr. 3(9): 271, no. 18, by designation of W. F. Kirby [1870], Zool. Rec. 6(1869): 357.
Neophasia terlooii Behr, 1869 Trans. Am. Entomol. Soc. 2(3): 304. Original Combination: N[eophasia]. Terlooii Type Locality: “pine forest region of the Sierra Madre in a cold, inhospitable region” [E of Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Mexico] Types: Holotype destroyed in the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire. Even though this name is a patronym for Baron Popelaire de Terloot, there is no evidence for this in the original description. Behr (1889), Proc. Calif. Acad. Sci. (2)2(7): 92, emended the name to terlootii, but that was an unjustified emendation; the name must stand as originally spelled (Code Article 32.2). = epyaxa Strecker, 1900 Descr. Neophasia epyaxa: 1. Original Combination: Neophasia Epyaxa Type Locality: “Cochise County, Southern Arizona” Types: Holotype in FMNH. This publication was duplicated by Strecker (1900), Lepid. Rhop. Het. (suppl. 3): 38. = princetonia (W. Barnes, 1900) In: Skinner, Entomol. News 11(7): 533. Original Combination: Archonias princetonia Type Locality: Not stated; Poling (1900), Can. Entomol. 32(12): 358, mentioned “Cochise County, Arizona”; syntypes from “Huachuca Mts.” Types: Syntypes in USNM. Poling (1900), Can. Entomol. 32(12): 358, redescribed this taxon (as Neophasia Terlootii, var. Princetonia). |
