Haematera Doubleday 1849

Haematera pyrame (H?bner 1819)

Andrew V. Z. Brower
Containing group: Catagrammini

Introduction

A geographically variable neotropical species, the smallest in the subtribe.

Nomenclature

For many years, it was thought that the generic name of this taxon was Callidula H?bner [1819], but the type species, Papilio pyramus Fabricius 1781 (an invalid junior homonym of Papilio pyramus Cramer 1779, a hesperiid) was incorrectly identified as a butterfly, when it is in fact a day-flying moth from the Moluccas, for which the name is valid (Callidulidae).

This page is a Tree of Life Leaf Page.

Each ToL leaf page provides a synopsis of the characteristics of a group of organisms representing a leaf at the tip of the Tree of Life. The major distinction between a leaf and a branch of the Tree of Life is that a leaf cannot generally be further subdivided into subgroups representing distinct genetic lineages.

For a more detailed explanation of the different ToL page types, have a look at the Structure of the Tree of Life page.
