038C8609FFBAFFA0ADE6FB28FBB5EB68.taxon	discussion	Note: Based on the examination of type photos of yedanula, the authors believe it belongs to D. berinda, instead of D. belladonna. The type locality of yedanula is “ Omi-Shan ” [Emei Shan, Sichuan, China], it cannot be different from adelma commonly found in Central China (type locality Changyang, Hubei, China), as recorded by Talbot (1937) “ In the B. M. [British Museum] a series of both sexes from ‘ Central China’; Changyang; Ichang [Yichang, Hubei]; Wuchang; Omeishan [Emei Shan, Sichuan] ”. Therefore, the authors treat yedanula as a junior subjective synonym of adelma based on morphological characters and overlapping distribution.	en	Hu, Shao-Ji, Inayoshi, Yutaka, Lamas, Gerardo, Zhang, Xin, Duan, Kuang (2026): Checklist of Yunnan Pieridae (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) with nomenclature and distributional notes.

038C8609FFB0FFAAADE6FD5AFD95E9DA.taxon	discussion	Remarks: Wahlberg et al. (2014) and Zhang et al. (2021) proposed the separation of Appias Hübner, [1819] and Catophaga Hübner, [1819] into two distinct genera based on molecular evidence, owing to the phylogenetic placement of Saletara Distant, 1885 and Aoa Nicéville, 1898 between them. The morphological justification for this separation rests primarily on differences in male genitalia, scent organs, and wing patterns (Yata 1981). However, in other butterfly groups — such as the pierid genus Aporia Hübner, [1819] and the papilionid genera Graphium Scopoli, 1777 and Papilio Linnaeus, 1758 — similar morphological variation occurs within a single genus, and taxonomists have chosen to maintain these species within unified genera. Given this precedent, the authors of this work maintain all Appias species within a single genus. The taxonomic status of Saletara and Aoa will be reassessed when further evidence becomes available.	en	Hu, Shao-Ji, Inayoshi, Yutaka, Lamas, Gerardo, Zhang, Xin, Duan, Kuang (2026): Checklist of Yunnan Pieridae (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) with nomenclature and distributional notes.

Here the authors illustrate the male and female genitalia of G. harina (Horsfield, 1829) to support this treatment. The male genitalia (Figure 4 A) has a bifurcate superuncus which is not found in other groups in Coliadinae. In the female genitalia (Figure 4 B), the signum is absent, while it is usually well developed in other groups in Coliadinae.	en	Hu, Shao-Ji, Inayoshi, Yutaka, Lamas, Gerardo, Zhang, Xin, Duan, Kuang (2026): Checklist of Yunnan Pieridae (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) with nomenclature and distributional notes.

038C8609FFA4FFB9ADE6FA76FB11EE5B.taxon	discussion	Remarks: Corbet & Pendlebury (1932) described stockleyi as an infrasubspecific name and thus it is unavailable under Article 45.5 of the ICZN Code (ICZN 1999). However, Talbot (1939) conferred availability in his work by applying the name to a subspecies of Eurema simulatrix with a description. Yata (1994: 65) mentioned the ‘ type’ specimen of Eurema simulatrix tecmessa f. stockleyi Corbet & Pendlebury, 1932 as follows: “ The holotype is now in the BMNH and bears the following labels; ‘ Burma; Up. Tenasserim, Taok Plateau, 3000 ft. 5. 1. 1924, Maj. C. H. Stockley / Brit. Mus., 1924 - 325 / ♂ type of Terias stockleyii, Corbet’ ”, but referred to it as the ‘ lectotype’ in the legend of plate 6, fig. 5. The current authors believe that this is one of the syntypes of Eurema simulatrix stockleyi Talbot, 1939. Talbot (1939) noted that there are five males in the “ BMNH ”, one from ‘ Taok Plateau’. The name sarinoides was originally described as Terias hecabe grandis form sarinoides Fruhstorfer, 1910, without any indication of locality or type specimen. However, it is infrasubspecific and thus unavailable under Article 45.5 of the ICZN Code (ICZN 1999). Fruhstorfer’s specimens actually belong to Eurema simulatrix inouei Shirôzu & Yata, 1973 since they come from eastern Thailand, so the name is not included in the above synonymy. One of these Fruhstorfer specimens was selected by A. S. Corbet & G. Talbot, who affixed a round red edged type label and a label stating ‘ selected as type of sarinoides Fruhs. by A. S. C. and G. T., 7. xi. 1939, there being no specimen so labelled in Coll Fruhstorfer’, but this selection was never published by them. At the beginning of the Second World War “ BMNH ” type specimens were hurriedly gathered together into a ‘ Type Collection’ and moved away from London to the countryside for safety (Riley 1964). Many infrasubspecific taxa were treated as ‘ holotypes’ and sometimes incorrect specimens were chosen, for example the holotype of Graphium arycles sphinx Fruhstorfer, 1899 (Cotton & Racheli [2007]: 309). Subsequently, Evans (1927) described an unstated number of specimens in the “ BMNH ”, London, as Terias lacteola sarinoides with the locality given as “ Sikkim — S. Burma ”. The authors consider that this description conferred validity on the name sarinoides as a subspecies. The description of the “ Unf apical area entirely brown ” by Evans (1927) is one of the characteristics of the dry-season form of sarinoides. Since the taxon from N. India is different to that from S. Myanmar, and to solve this historical confusion, the current authors chose to designate the syntype male specimen from ‘ Taok Plateau, Upper Tenasserim’ (in the Natural History Museum, London, UK) of Eurema simulatrix stockleyi Talbot, 1939 illustrated by Yata (1994: pl. 6, figs. 5 – 6) as the Lectotype for both Terias lacteola sarinoides Evans, 1927 and for Eurema simulatrix stockleyi Talbot, 1939 since this specimen is a syntype of both taxa. Yata (1994) incorrectly stated that this specimen is ‘ holotype’ of f. stockleyi Corbet & Pendlebury, 1932 in the text and ‘ lectotype’ in the caption for plate 6, because an infrasubspecific name cannot have type specimens. This action fixes the name sarinoides to the taxon as the valid subspecies name while making stockleyi its junior objective synonym (syn. nov.) and restricts the type locality of both to Ta-ok Plateau, S. Myanmar.	en	Hu, Shao-Ji, Inayoshi, Yutaka, Lamas, Gerardo, Zhang, Xin, Duan, Kuang (2026): Checklist of Yunnan Pieridae (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) with nomenclature and distributional notes.
