Rhinthon braesia (Hewitson, 1867) and Rhinthon bajula ( Schaus, 1902) , new combinations
Evans (1955) treated Thracides molion Godman, 1901 , Thracides bajula Schaus, 1902 , and Hesperia braesia Hewitson, 1867 in Neoxeniades Hayward, 1938 ( type species Neoxeniades musarion Hayward, 1938 ). Burns et al. (2010) transferred molion to Rhinthon Godman, 1900 ( type species Proteides chiriquensis Mabille, 1889 , a junior subjective synonym of Hesperia osca Plötz, 1882 ), but left the other two of its close relatives ( Fig. 13 View Figure 13 ) in Neoxeniades . Here, we correct this problem and suggest Rhinthon braesia and Rhinthon bajula as new combinations.
