Abstract

<p>We report a total of 46 type specimens belonging to 28 taxa of South East Asian Adoliadini (Nymphalidae, Lepidoptera) preserved in the Naturalis Biodiversity Center, Leiden. The species and subspecies discussed here are currently assigned to the genera Tanaecia, Euthalia, Cynitia and Lexias. Amongst the specimens examined there are 40 primary types and 6 secondary types, as well as 5 specimens of additional material. We examined the following material: fourteen taxa described by Snellen van Vollenhoven [Agnis, apicalis, Apsarasa, bipunctata, Blumei, clathrata, Diardi, Gandarva, Indras, Ludekingii, octogesima, Pardalis, Surjas, and Varuna]; two taxa by Snellen [vordermani and immaculata]; three taxa by Fruhstorfer [bangkana, ritsemae and stictica]; three taxa by Tsukada [candidatus, mulsus and siluvanus]; two taxa by Van Eecke [picta and dammermani]; one taxon by Jurriaanse [satellita]; one taxon by Jurriaanse & Volbeda [baliensis]; one taxon by Toxopeus [roepkei] and one taxon by Wegner [interrupta]. We provide the original combination of genus and species name, combinations under which the original name has been cited in the literature, description of the type material, type locality, comments on the type material, its history, and its current name, as well as figures of the type specimens. Data of the types has been verified by examination of the specimens and the original literature. When necessary, comments on taxonomy are added, taxonomic and nomenclatural changes are indicated accordingly. Two lectotypes are designated in order to stabilise the nomenclature. A new subspecies, Euthalia (Euthalia) mahadeva eeckei, is described.</p>
