- Taenaris Hübner, J. 1819 [1816–1826]. Verzeichniss bekannter Schmettlinge. Augsburg, Germany : Jacob Hübner 17-176 pp. [issued 1819, dated 1816–1826] [52] [Hübner, J. 1821. Index exoticorum Lepidopterorum, in folis 244 a Jacobo Hübner hactenus effigiatorum; adjectis denominationibus emendatis, tam communioribus quam exactioribus. Augsburg [8] pp. ([4]) referred to Taenaris Hübner, [1819] without mentioning Tenaris Hübner, [1819]; on this basis Hemming, F. 1967. The generic names of the butterflies and their type-species (Lepidoptera: Rhopalocera). Bulletin of the British Museum (Natural History), Entomology Suppl. 9: 1–509 (426) incorrectly considered Hübner to be the first reviser (Art. 24, ICZN 1985); Edwards, E.D., Newland, J. & Regan, L. 2001. Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea, Papilionoidea. In Wells, A. & Houston, W.W.K. Zoological Catalogue of Australia. Vol. 31.6. Melbourne : CSIRO Publishing, Australia. x 615 pp. it has not been practicable to search the literature for the first reviser, but it may be Hemming (1967)].
