    Perus parvus (Steinhauser and Austin, 1993), new combination Staphylus parvus Steinhauser and Austin, 1993 (type locality Costa Rica) is not monophyletic with Staphylus Godman and Salvin, 1896 (type species Helias ascalaphus Staudinger, 1876) and instead originates within Perus Grishin, 2019 (type species Pholisora cordillerae Lindsey, 1925) (Fig. 5), where we transfer it to form Perus parvus (Steinhauser and Austin, 1993), new combination.Published as part of Zhang, Jing, Cong, Qian, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2022, Taxonomic changes suggested by the genomic analysis of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-135 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (921) on page 28, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.639205

    Alychna gota (Evans, 1955), new combination Psoralis gota Evans, 1955 (type locality Venezuela) is not monophyletic with Psoralis Mabille, 1904 (type species Psoralis sabaeus Mabille, 1904, which is a junior subjective synonym of Pamphila idee Weeks, 1901), but instead originates within Alychna Grishin, 2019 (type species Pamphila exclamationis Mabille, 1898) (Fig. 13) and therefore we propose Alychna gota (Evans, 1955), new combination.Published as part of Zhang, Jing, Cong, Qian, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2022, Taxonomic changes suggested by the genomic analysis of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-135 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (921) on page 52, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.639205

    Eantis pallida (R. Felder, 1869), new combination In all trees, Helias pallida R. Felder, 1869 is not monophyletic with Papilio busirus Cramer, [1779], the type species of Achlyodes Hübner, [1819], but originates within Eantis Boisduval, [1836] (type species Urbanus thraso Hübner, [1807]) (Fig. 5). Therefore, H. pallida is placed in this genus to form a new combination: Eantis pallida.Published as part of Cong, Qian, Zhang, Jing, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2019, Fifty new genera of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-56 in Insecta Mundi 731 (731) on page 12, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.367723

    Nervia wallengrenii (Trimen, 1883), new combination Thymelicus wallengrenii Trimen, 1883 (type locality in South Africa) is not monophyletic with Kedestes Watson, 1893 (type species Hesperia lepenula Wallengren, 1857), where it is currently placed and instead groups closely with Nervia Grishin, 2019 (type species Hesperia nerva Fabricius, 1793) (Fig. 10). Therefore, we propose Nervia wallengrenii (Trimen, 1883), new combination.Published as part of Zhang, Jing, Cong, Qian, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2022, Taxonomic changes suggested by the genomic analysis of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-135 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (921) on page 41, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.639205

    Isoteinon abjecta Cong & Zhang & Shen & Grishin 2019, new combination

    Isoteinon abjecta (Snellen, 1872), new combination Phylogenetic analysis shows (Fig. 9) that Pamphila abjecta Snellen, 1872 is not monophyletic with Astictopterus jama C. and R. Felder, 1860, the type species of the genus Astictopterus C. and R. Felder, 1860, where Isoteinon abjecta was previously placed, and instead forms a clade with Isoteinon lamprospilus C. and R. Felder, 1862, the type and the only species of Isoteinon C. and R. Felder, 1862. Therefore, we reinstate the combination Isoteinon abjecta.Published as part of Cong, Qian, Zhang, Jing, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2019, Fifty new genera of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-56 in Insecta Mundi 731 (731) on page 22, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.367723

    Neoxeniades parna Zhang & Cong & Shen & Grishin 2022, new combination

    Neoxeniades parna (Evans, 1955), new combination Niconiades parna (Evans, 1955 (type locality Brazil: Para) is not monophyletic with Niconiades Hübner, [1821] (type species Niconiades xanthaphes Hübner, [1821]), in Moncina A. Warren, 2008, but instead is within Neoxeniades Hayward, 1938 (type species Neoxeniades musarion Hayward, 1938), in Carystina Mabille, 1878 (Fig. 17). The shape of valva and extended slightly bilobed uncus agree with this placement. Therefore we propose Neoxeniades parna (Evans, 1955), new combination.Published as part of Zhang, Jing, Cong, Qian, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2022, Taxonomic changes suggested by the genomic analysis of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-135 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (921) on page 97, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.639205

    Vistigma (Vistigma) opus (Steinhauser, 2008), new combination Thoon opus Steinhauser, 2008 originates within Vistigma Hayward, 1939 (type species Vistigma xanthobasis Hayward, 1939) and is sister to species placed in the subgenus Vistigma (Fig. 15), but is in a clade different from the subgenus Penicula Evans, 1955, hence Vistigma (Vistigma) opus (Steinhauser, 2008), new combination.Published as part of Zhang, Jing, Cong, Qian, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2022, Taxonomic changes suggested by the genomic analysis of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-135 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (921) on page 84, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.639205

    Testia mammaea (Hewitson, 1876), new combination Hesperia mammaea Hewitson, 1876 placed in Decinea Evans, 1955 (type species Hesperia decinea Hewitson, 1876) by Evans (1955) is in a clade away from Decinea (Fig. 11) and is instead sister to Testia potesta (Bell, 1941), the type and the only species in its genus. The two species are similar in having long uncus arms, terminally expanded penis, a small pale spot near the end of the discal cell and a postdiscal row of such spots on hindwing below (sometimes vestigial) and a prominent ivory-colored area in the middle of cell CuA 2 -1A+2A on ventral forewing. Therefore, we propose Testia mammaea (Hewitson, 1876), new combination, making Testia Grishin, 2019 no longer monotypic.Published as part of Zhang, Jing, Cong, Qian, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2022, Taxonomic changes suggested by the genomic analysis of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-135 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (921) on page 43, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.639205

    Clytius shola (Evans, 1953), new combination Staphylus shola Evans, 1953 (type locality unknown, sequenced specimen is from Venezuela) is not monophyletic with Staphylus Godman and Salvin, 1896 (type species Helias ascalaphus Staudinger, 1876), and instead is sister to Clytius clytius (Godman and Salvin, 1897) (Fig. 5). Male genitalia of the two species share similarly convex costa and bulging ampulla, but a triangular harpe is more extended caudad in S. shola. Thus, it is placed in the genus Clytius Grishin, 2019 (type species Pholisora clytius Godman and Salvin, 1897) as Clytius shola (Evans, 1953), new combination.Published as part of Zhang, Jing, Cong, Qian, Shen, Jinhui & Grishin, Nick V., 2022, Taxonomic changes suggested by the genomic analysis of Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera), pp. 1-135 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (921) on page 28, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.639205
