Type species. Papilio broteas Cramer, 1780 .

Definition. The subgenus is sister to Praxa Grishin , new subgenus ( Fig. 1 ). Keys to D.5.3b in Evans (1952). Distinguished from its relatives by the following combination of characters: the closest to costa apical white spot on forewing in line with others (not offset basad); cheeks and palpi white; tegumen with side processes, harpe with a tooth by ventral side. In DNA, a combination of the following base pairs is diagnostic: aly525.53.4:A108 T, aly1222.15.5:A8532G, aly 2532.10.1:A375G, aly113.26.2:A28C, and aly28779.7.3:A62 T .

Etymology. The name is a masculine noun in the nominative singular, a fusion of species names in this genus: Br [oteas] + [sol] on.

Species included. The type species and Telemiades solon Plötz, 1882 .

Parent taxon. Genus Nascus Watson, 1893 .

Figure 1. Genomic tree of Eudaminae. The tree is constructed from protein-coding regions. The tree is rooted with Pterourus glaucus (Linnaeus, 1758) (NVG-1670), not shown. Statistical support values are shown on nodes. For each specimen, its name adopted in this work is given first, and a previously used name is listed in square brackets (if different), supplemented with the DNA sample number, type status (see Table 2 caption for abbreviations) and general locality. See Table S1 in the Supplemental file for additional data about these specimens. Synonyms are given in parentheses preceded by “=”, and in addition by “‡” for unavailable names. The type status refers to this synonym, if the synonym name is provided. Clades corresponding to new genera, subgenera and species are colored in red, orange and green, respectively, and the names of new taxa are highlighted accordingly. Names of selected tribes, subtribes, genera, and subgenera are labeled at their clades. Clades corresponding to some genera are highlighted in yellow to compare their genetic diversifications (length of the highlight in horizontal dimension) with each other. Groups of similar genetic diversification would ideally correspond to genera. The
