Abstract

The genus Tanaecia Butler, 1869, widely distributed in Southeastern Asia, has been classified into the tribe Adoliadini (Limenitidinae, Nymphalidae). In this paper, Tanaecia clathrata and the related species are discussed. The following sixteen taxa described before are mentioned: caerulescens, clathrata, coelebs, ellida, heringi, lautensis, mulsa, nicevillei, purpurea, regalis, regina, siluvana, sirius, solium, subclathrata, and violaria. The characteristics of their type specimens are examined and they are classified into four species: Tanaecia clathrata, T. heringi, T. mulsa, and T. nisakai sp. nov. A new species, T. nisakai, and two new subspecies, i. e. T. heringi siriwijaya and T. heringi riauensis, are described.
