''Atlides'' is a genus of gossamer-winged butterflies (family Lycaenidae). Among these, it belongs belong to the tribe Eumaeini of the subfamily Theclinae. These small butterflies are widespread in the Americas, occurring almost anywhere between the southern USA and Argentina.〔 ==Species== 17 named and 5 (or more) undescribed species are known or assumed to belong to this genus:〔 * ''Atlides atys'' (Cramer, ()) * ''Atlides bacis'' (Godman & Salvin, ()) * ''Atlides browni'' Constantino, Salazar & Johnson, 1993 * ''Atlides carpasia'' (Hewitson, 1868) * ''Atlides cosa'' (Hewitson, 1867) * ''Atlides dahnersi'' Bálint, Constantino & Johnson, 2003 * ''Atlides gaumeri'' (Godman, ()) * ''Atlides halesus'' – Great Purple Hairstreak, Great Blue Hairstreak * ''Atlides halljasoni'' Bálint & Wojtusiak, 2006 * ''Atlides havila'' (Hewitson, 1865) * ''Atlides inachus'' (Cramer, ()) * ''Atlides misma'' D'Abrera, 1995 * ''Atlides polama'' (Schaus, 1902) * ''Atlides polybe'' (Linnaeus, 1763) * ''Atlides rustan'' (Stoll, ()) * ''Atlides thargelia'' (Burmeister, 1878) * ''Atlides zava'' (Hewitson, 1878) * ''Atlides'' sp. 'Bahia' * ''Atlides'' sp. 'Colombia' * ''Atlides'' sp. 'Costa Rica' * ''Atlides'' sp. 'Ecuador' * ''Atlides'' sp. 'Peru' ''A. thargelia'' was recently proposed for separation as monotypic genus ''"Riojana"'', but it was subsequently argued to be a ''nomen nudum'' per Article 13.1 of the ICZN Code, because an appropriate genus description was not given. The matter has been submitted to the ICZN for discussion. Regardless the questions of nomenclature, ''A. thargelia'' is for the time being retained here; given that several undescribed relatives are known to exist, splitting off monotypic lineages now runs risk of leaving the remaining group paraphyletic. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Atlides」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
