Pseudonymphidia Callaghan, 1985 is a subgenus of Pachythone H. Bates, 1868

Currently treated as a genus, Pseudonymphidia Callaghan, 1985 (type species Emesis clearista Butler, 1871) includes species that are phenotypically similar to species in the subgenus Lenca subgen. n. (type species Lemonias lencates Hewitson, 1875) of Pachythone H. Bates, 1868 (type species Pachythone erebia Bates, 1868), and all these species are differentiated genetically from each other at the subgenus level (Fig. 23 blue), e.g., COI barcodes of the type species of Pseudonymphidia and Pachythone differ by 9% (59 bp). Therefore, we propose that Pseudonymphidia Callaghan, 1985 stat. nov. is a subgenus of Pachythone H. Bates, 1868 .
