Oenides Mabille, 1904 is a valid genus

Hesperia vulpina C. and R. Felder, 1867 is not monophyletic with Alera furcata , the type species of Alera , where H. vulpina was previously placed, and since it is the type species of the available genusgroup name Oenides Mabille, 1904 , that was considered a subjective synonym of Alera , we resurrect this genus from synonymy and use it as a monotypic valid genus with the species Oenides vulpina ( Fig. 13 ).
