| Résumé : | We conclude that the two currently recognized subspecies of Eugenes fulgens, should be regognized as full species within that genus: E. fulgens and E. spectabilis. Biogeography and morphology further support merge of the monotypic genera Sternoclyta and Hylonympha into the genus Eugenes, whose closest sister taxon is most likely the genus Heliodoxa of which H. schreibersii is the closest relative. |
