Iliana Raeva
''Iliana'' is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae. It was described in 1937 by Ernest Layton Bell, with ''Iliana romulus'' as type species. The genus has a neotropical distribution. Distribution Species mainly occur in Peru, Brazil and Bolivia, with one species, ''Iliana remus'', additionally known from French Guiana. Taxonomy Placement within the Hesperiidae The placement of ''Iliana'' within the Hesperiidae is not fully resolved. It has traditionally been placed within the Pyrgini, but Warren et al. (2008, 2009) place it in Carcharodini, which has been followed by many but not all subsequent publications including the genus. Mielke and Casagrande (2016) argue for its placement to remain in tribe Pyrgini until more in-depth reclassification has taken place. Species At the time the genus was erected, it contained two species, ''Iliana remus'' and ''Iliana romulus'', with the latter assigned as type species. Both species were at the time newly described by Bell f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
