Notes:
Hemming (1967) stated:-
The name Goniloba sena was first published by Moore in 1857 (in Horsfield & Moore, Cat. lep. Mus. Ins. Mus. East India Coy (1) : 245), and this has sometimes been treated as the date attributable to this name. As published in 1857, it was however a nomen nudum, the data then given by Moore about this species being particulars as to the localities where the specimens available to him had been captured. As shown above this nominal species was not validly established with a description until the publication in 1866 of Moore's paper in the Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. for 1865.
BIBASIS was included within the subfamily HESPERIIDAE: COELIADINAE by Ackery et al., in Kristensen (1999).
The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
