Satyrus HYSIUS Godart , in Latreille & Godart, 1819 [1824]

Encyclopédie Méthodique Histoire Naturelle [Zoologie] 9. Entomologie 329–825 [525]. Current accepted combination: Calisto hysius (Godart, in Latreille & Godart, 1819 [1824]) (see D’Abrera, 1988; Lamas, 2004).

Lectotype, female (no.55) and paralectotype male (no.54), pinned underside uppermost on a strip of cork: Specimen data: Specimen reg. no. 55: “hysius” [Handwritten (by Godart) on coarse bluish paper]. “Dufresne” [Printed] on verso “ Satyrus | hysius | 68” [Handwritten]. “TYPE” [Handwritten on oval pink label]. “Dufresne | 1936-50 | 55” on verso “ Calisto hysius | Godart | TYPE” [Handwritten (by Grimshaw) on mauve paper]. Specimen reg. no. 54: Labels as no. 55 above only without Godart’s handwritten label and with registration no. 54. Remarks: Godart’s handwritten label indicates that specimen no.55 was present in the Dufresne collection when it was studied by Godart. The two form part of the type series. The lectotype was designated by Grimshaw (1897) when he stated that the female was “….the type.” Type locality unknown, but “nous le soupçonnons de l’Amérique septentrionale” [North America]. The species is an endemic of Hispaniola ( Haiti and Dominican Republic). Interestingly although the description was not published until 1824 it must have been written prior to 1818 as that name is used in the collection catalogue of that date (cf. Grimshaw 1897). An invalid “ neotype ” of Satyrus hysius Godart , [1824] was designated by Johnson & Hedges (1998).
