Description
CASTNIUS HÜBNER, [1819] (FIGS 5, 6)
Type species
Papilio pelasgus Cramer, [1779]
Included species
Castnius pelasgus (Cramer, [1779]), Castnius marcus (Jordan, 1908), and C. asteropoides Porion, 2004.
Comments
Two synapomorphic characters, the sacculus as an anterior projection (47: 1) and rectangular (48: 3), plus the homoplastic characters related to wing venation and morphology of the aedeagus and valva, support the arrangement of this genus. We must note, however, that C. asteropoides was not included in the analysis.
