ABSTRACT THIS book aims at providing a list of generic names proposed for the holarctic butterflies between the years 1758 and 1863, inclusive. It also attempts to give the correct fixation
in so far as typical species, or genotypes, are concerned. Mr. Hemming has based his results and conclusions on an exhaustive first-hand examination of the whole of the literature concerned.
Entomological workers have long been hampered by doubts obtaining relative to the correct names of so many of the insects they study. Among these uncertainties, generic names are paramount,
while specific names are of lesser importance and would prove of little difficulty once uniformity of generic nomenclature could be attained. The Generic Names of the Holarctic Butterflies.
