Pierinae : Incertae sedis

De Baar and Hancock (1993) revised the Australian species of Elodina Felder & Felder and, like Klots (1933), treated Elodinesthes Fruhstorfer as a synonym of Elodina . De Baar (2004) subsequently produced an updated list of all lower taxa assigned to Elodina .

Stoneham (1940) erected the monotypic genus Pseudohuphina Stoneham to accommodate the species Belenois raffrayi Oberthür , but this proposal has subsequently been ignored by modern authorities (e.g. Bernardi 1953; Larsen 1991; Ackery et al. 1995). Bernardi (1953) described Pseudanaphaeis Bernardi as a subgenus of Belenois and included two Afrotropical species in it, but Ackery et al. (1995) treated Pseudanaphaeis as a synonym of Belenois . van Son (1949) and Ackery et al. (1995) also regarded Anaphaeis Hübner , treated as a subgenus of Belenois by Klots (1933), as a synonym of Belenois .
