Genomic sequencing of the holotype of Ginungagapus fiedleri Carneiro, O. Mielke & Casagrande, 2015 (type locality in Brazil: Paraná) ( Fig. 6 maroon) reveals that it is not monophyletic with Ginungagapus Carneiro, O. Mielke & Casagrande, 2015 (type species Euroto schmithi E. Bell, 1930 ) and instead is sister to Panca steinhauseri (Dolibaina & A. Warren, 2015) (type locality in Ecuador) within Panca Evans, 1955 (type species Lerodea subpunctuli Hayward, 1934 ) ( Fig. 6 violet). In a morphological phylogeny, Ginungagapus and Artines Godman, 1901 (type species Thracides aepitus Geyer, 1832 ) were recovered as sisters ( Carneiro et al. 2015). At that time, however, Artines trogon Evans, 1955 and Artines fosca Evans, 1955 were selected as representatives of Artines , two species currently in Panca ( Medeiros et al. 2020) and Eutocus (combination proposed below), respectively. In this analysis G. fiedleri was the first linage to diverge within Ginungagapus , being sister of a clade with all remaining species in the genus. In fact, G. fiedleri shares several morphological similarities in male and female genitalia with species in Panca , suggesting close affinity, which is here corroborated by the genome. Therefore, we propose Panca fiedleri (Carneiro, O. Mielke & Casagrande, 2015) , comb. nov.
