Strymon melinus Hübner, 1818 Zutr. Samml. exot. Schmett. 1: pl. [22], figs. 121 ♂ D, 122 ♂ V [1813], 22, no. 61 (1818, name given). Original Combination: Strymon Melinus Type Locality: “Georgien in Florida” Types: Type(s) probably lost. Opinion 503 placed this name on the Official List of Specific Names in Zoology as name no. 1602. This taxon was first called Rusticus melinus by Hübner (1808), Erste Zutr. Samml. exot. Schmett.: 5, but this work was suppressed by I.C.Z.N. Opinion 789. = hyperici (Boisduval & Le Conte, 1833) Hist. Lépid. Amér. sept.

The specimens upon which this drawing was based are probably lost. Oberthür (1920), Étud. Lépid. Comp. 17: pl. 505, fig. 4208 ♂ D&V, figured what he considered to be the “type” from the Boisduval collection, now probably at USNM. Calhoun (2004), J. Lepid. Soc. 58(3): 156, discussed the dubious nature of such “types” from the Boisduval collection. = ‡”youngi” W. D. Field, 1936 J. Entomol. & Zool. 28(2): 25. Original Combination: Strymon melinus tr. f. youngi Type Locality: “Miami. Florida” [Miami-Dade County] Types: “Holotype” in USNM.
