Jeffrey Glassberg - 20 September 2005
Here is a revised list of English names for Mexican butterflies, now with names for all species excepting a few undescribed species. These are the names I plan to use in a forthcoming field guide to all Mexican butterflies. Based upon feedback from users and other considerations, a number names have been changed from the first preliminary list. For example, I originally had named Hamadryas laodamia Black Cracker, based upon the color of its underwings and in keeping with the names of many other crackers, i.e., Red Cracker and Orange Cracker. However, there was strong support for the name coined by Phil DeVries, Starry Night. Since this species is a cracker, I went with Starry Cracker. Another example is Phocides urania, which I had named Jade Beamer. I called all Phocides beamers, based upon the iridescent rays that radiate out from the base of the their FWs. This feature immediately separates these species from the very similar-appearing blue firetips, which lack these radiating “beams.” However, some users were uncomfortable with “jade” because, to them, jade meant green (although there is jade that is the color of urania) and the color of the stripes on this animal are bluer than they are green (although Evans, in his massive work on New World skippers, says “striping green”). Considering this, I have changed the name to Teal Beamer since teal blue is very close to the actual color (urania is the only beamer that is really greenish-blue, not blue).
In naming Mexican butterflies, I have tried to provide names that will help users remember butterflies and that in many cases will assist them with field identification. I also tried to consider all Neotropical species, not just those in Mexico. So, if a species is the only Mexican species in its group that has red on the HW, but there are 15 other species in the Neotropics that have red on the HW, I generally didn’t use this feature in the name. Or, if a species is restricted to western Mexico, I didn’t call it Western ..., I called it West-Mexican. I also tried to vary the names, using field marks, geography, describers, scientific names, and whimsy. In most cases, the reason for the name will be obvious, sometimes less so. In the end, I believe that there are many good names, a large number of serviceable names, and some clunkers on the list.
Especially with hairstreaks, metalmarks and skippers, new group names were needed. This is because hairstreaks, metalmarks and skippers each have large numbers of species and many of the subgroups within these larger groupings are readily identifiable in the field, and because it would have been impossible to find meaningful names for, for example, more than 700 species of “skipper.” In general, the group names align with genus, but sometimes are broader. At some point in the future, NABA Checklist names should probably be changed to reflect the Neotropical group names. For example, Gray Hairstreak would become Gray Scrub-Hairstreak and Ocola Skipper would become Ocola Panoquin.
My intent is to have scientific (and English) names on this list to follow the NABA Checklist when a particular species is treated there. For species not treated on the NABA Checklist, my intent is to use the recently published Atlas of Neotropical Lepidoptera. Checklist: Part 4A. Hesperioidea – Papilionoidea edited by Gerardo Lamas (2004. Scientific Publishers), except where another treatment is clearly implied by the NABA Checklist. For example, many swallowtails, including Eastern Tiger Swallowtail are placed in the genus Papilio on the NABA list, while the Atlas elevates subgenera, such as Pterourus to genus level and places Eastern Tiger Swallowtail in that genus. Therefore, I follow the NABA list and list Eastern Tiger Swallowtail as Papilio glaucus. The Mexican endemic Oaxacan Swallowtail, which is not on the NABA checklist, is listed as Pterourus esperanza in the Atlas. I list Oaxacan Swallowtail as Papilio esperanza because it is clear that the NABA Checklist means to include all swallowtails in this group as belonging to the genus Papilio. In a number of cases a particular subspecies is listed as a convenience, but unless there are quotes around the first portion of the name, the English name refers to the entire species, not just the subspecies. In a fair number of cases I believe that the taxonomic arrangement chosen in the Atlas (and thus on this list) is not correct and will likely change in the future.
I am making this list available now, prior to publication of the Mexican field guide, because I would welcome any comments potential users might have that would improve the list. Please send along any suggested names for species that you believe would be superior to the ones I propose, along with your reasoning about why your name would be better, to glassberg@naba.org. Or, if you find instances where the NABA Checklist is not followed as primary authority or the above mentioned Atlas is not followed as secondary authority, or typographical errors, please let me know. I will consider any suggestions sent, although, due to time demands, I probably will not be able to reply.
