| Taxon remarks: | Type species: Callima argenticinctella Clemens, 1860. Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences Philadelphia 12(8): 167. By monotypy. Epicallima Dyar, 1903 is widely used as a replacement name for Callima, which is not a junior homonym of Callima Herrich-Schäffer, 1858, itself an incorrect subsequent spelling of Kallima Doubleday, 1849 and thus an unavailable name. See Pohl & Landry (2023) and the ICZN (Article 33.3). |
