Resumo

The lectotype of Papilo bixae Linnaeus, designated by Hemming (1964) based on the figure of Merian (1705), was found in the Wiesbaden Museum, and here with considered as such. It corresponds to Pyrrhopyge phidias bixae; Evans (1951). Two syntypes of Papilo proteus Linnaeus, 1758, were also found in the same Museum and one of them was selected as lectotype. These lectotypes are figured for the first time.
