Zethera incerta, the great Wallacean, is butterfly endemic to the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia. It was described by William Chapman Hewitson in 1869. [1]
Graphium is a genus of mostly tropical swallowtail butterflies commonly known as swordtails, kite swallowtails, or ladies. Native to Eurasia, Africa, and Oceania, the genus is represented by over 100 species. Their colouration is as variable as the habitats they frequent; from rainforest to savannah. Some possess tails which may be long and swordlike, while others lack any hindwing extensions. Graphium species are often sighted at mud puddles.
Astraptes is the genus of flasher butterflies. They belong to the skipper butterfly subfamily Eudaminae, which was long included with the spread-winged skippers (Pyrginae) as a tribe. They are found in the Nearctic and Neotropical ecozones.
The Satyrini is one of the tribes of the subfamily Satyrinae. It includes about 2200 species and is therefore the largest tribe in the subfamily which comprises 2500 species.
Polyura is a subgenus of butterflies also referred to as Nawab butterflies and belonging to the brush-footed butterfly subfamily Charaxinae, or leafwing butterflies. Like the large and conspicuous forest queens, they belong to the genus Charaxes, unique genus of the tribe Charaxini.
Bibasis, the awlets, are a genus of skipper butterflies. The genus is confined to the Indomalayan realm. Vane-Wright and de Jong (2003) state that Bibasis contains just three diurnal species, the remainder having been removed to Burara.
Faunis is a genus of Asian butterflies in the family Nymphalidae. They are among the butterflies commonly known as fauns. They are relatively small-sized amathusiins, subtly colored in soft browns and violets, and range from China to the Philippines and Sulawesi.
Dacalana is a genus of butterflies in the family Lycaenidae. The genus is distributed from Assam through Sundaland to Sulawesi, and is especially richly represented in the Philippines.
Callicore is a genus of nymphalid butterfly found in the Neotropical realm. This genus, like some related ones, was formerly lumped together as the paraphyletic Catagramma assemblage.
Archaeoprepona chromus is a species of Neotropical charaxine butterflies in the family Nymphalidae, native to South America.
Ocaria is a Neotropical genus of butterflies in the family Lycaenidae.
Dismorphia is a genus of butterflies in the subfamily Dismorphiinae.
Dalla is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae.
Catasticta is a genus of Neotropical butterflies in the family Pieridae. The genus was erected by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1870.
Pronophilina is a Neotropical subtribe of butterflies of the subfamily Satyrinae. They are a species-rich group with highest diversity in the tropical and subtropical mountains, especially the Andes. Before 1970, they were poorly studied, but recent interest has resulted in high rates of species description from previously unexplored mountain ranges. However, there is still a lack of knowledge on their biology and ecology. Their relationship to other groups of Satyrine butterflies and their complex patterns of speciation within and among mountain ranges have led to several biogeographic discussions.
Hyantis is a monotypic nymphalid butterfly genus. Its sole species is Hyantis hodeva, which is found in New Guinea. It is uncertain which tribe this butterfly should be placed within.
Charis is a genus of the Riodinini tribe of metalmark butterflies. Nineteen species have been identified within the Charis cleonus complex and eight species within the Charis gynaea group (clade). Charis butterflies are common in the Neotropics and often live in primary and secondary growth. The Charis cleonus group exhibits contemporary parapatric distributions throughout Amazonia and are thought to have speciated allopatrically; residing in "areas of endemism". Some evidence suggests that Charis are reproductively isolated by mating preferences for different topographic areas and different times—of which, may have promoted speciation between the various groups.

Tajuria iapyx is a butterfly endemic to the island of Sulawesi. It was described by William Chapman Hewitson in 1865.
