title = "The types of skippers described by Shu-Iti Murayama (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae)",
abstract = "Fifteen holotypes of Asian Hesperiidae taxa described by Shu-iti Murayama were examined, and their taxonomic status is discussed. We confirm that five are valid names while the rest are synonyms as indicated partially by previous authors. Valid species-level names are Aeromachus matudai (Murayama), Aeromachus bandaishanus Murayama &Shimonoya, Coladenia pinsbukana (Shimonoya &Murayama), and Sebastonyma suthepiana Murayama &Kimura. Valid subspecieslevel name is Ochlodes yuchingkina Murayama &Shimonoya. In order to settle the taxonomic status of Pedesta masuriensis cuneomaculata Murayama, masuriensis and tali were studied morphologically and molecularly. As a result, we consider that masuriensis and tali are two different species and treat cuneomaculata as a junior subjective synonym of tali. ",

note = "Funding Information: HC thank the late Dr. Shu-iti Murayama for granting permission to examine his collection at his residence. He also provided the details of his collection along with reprints. Dr. Katsuro Yahiro (Lake Biwa Museum) allowed us to examine the types under his care and provided us with some photographs. We would like to extend our gratitude for his kindness. We would also like to thank Mr. Toyokazu Shimonoya to give the permission to take photographs of types in his collection, and Dr. Xiaolong Fan for providing some molecular information. Dr. Gerardo Lamas M{\"u}ller, Dr. Reza Zahiri and Dr. Guo-xi Xue gave valuable comments.
