Telemiades Hübner, [1819] is currently comprised of 22 species and 14 subspecies distributed exclusively in the neotropics. The genus is defined by the morphological pattern of the uncus, apiculus, labial palpi and venation. However, some species have a uniform pattern of coloration making it difficult to establish their correct identity in some cases. The aims of the present study were to present a taxonomic revision of Telemiades Hübner, [1819] in order to provide a stable taxonomic hypothesis for the group, to describe the new species and to present diagnoses to help in species identification. According to the present study, Telemiades is now composed of 41 species. Fourteen new species are recognized and described. Three subspecies are here treated as valid species: T. marpesus (Hewitson, 1876) stat. rest., T. misitheus Mabille, 1888 stat. rest. and T. pekahia (Hewitson, 1868) stat. rest. Two synonyms are treated as valid species: T. insulsus (Draudt, 1922), stat. rev. and T. xantho Hayward, 1939 stat. rev. Five new synonyms are proposed: Plesioneura lamus Mabille, 1888 syn. nov. and Telemiades antiope tosca Evans, 1953 syn. nov. of T. antiope (Plötz, 1882), Echelatus punctatus Mabille Boullet, 1917 syn. nov. of T. epicalus Hübner, [1819], Proteides nicola Plötz, 1882 syn. nov. of T. laogonus (Hewitson, 1876) and Eudamus phlius Plötz, 1881 syn. nov. of T. nicomedes (Möschler, 1879). To provide stability for existing names, six neotypes were designated for: Proteides amphion Geyer, 1832, Plesioneura compressa Möschler, 1877, Papilio avitus Stoll, 1781, Telegonus mygdon Möschler, 1877, Proteides aesopus Plötz, 1882 and Papilio corbulo Stoll, 1781; and 19 lectotypes for: Aethilla buffumi Weeks, 1906, Eudamus marpesus Hewitson, 1876, Telemiades misitheus Mabille, 1888, Pterygospidea pekahia Hewitson, 1868, Telemiades lurideolus Mabille, 1877, Eudamus laogonus Hewitson, 1876, Eudamus penidas Hewitson, 1867, Telemiades ceramina Herrich-Schäffer, 1869, Telemiades megalloides Schaus, 1902, Pythonides hoyti Weeks, 1906, Eudamus praestes Hewitson, 1876, Telemiades epicalus Hübner, [1819], Eudamus phasias Hewitson, 1867, Telemiades arcturus Herrich-Schäffer, 1869, Echelatus punctatus Mabille Boullet, 1917, Eudamus centrites Hewitson, 1870, Telegonus gallius Mabille, 1888, Telegonus nicomedes Möschler, 1879, and Arteurotia meris Plötz, 1886.
特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶属（Telemiades Hübner，[1819]）目前包含22个物种和14个亚种，仅分布于新热带界。该属由抱器腹、小尖突、唇须和脉序的形态模式界定。然而，一些物种具有一致的颜色模式，这使得在某些情况下难以确定它们的正确身份。本研究的目的是对特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶属（Telemiades Hübner，[1819]）进行分类修订，以便为该类群提供一个稳定的分类假说，描述新物种并给出诊断特征以帮助物种鉴定。根据本研究，特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶属现由41个物种组成。识别并描述了14个新物种。三个亚种在此被视为有效物种：马佩苏斯特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. marpesus (Hewitson, 1876) stat. rest.）、米西修斯特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. misitheus Mabille, 1888 stat. rest.）和佩卡希亚特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. pekahia (Hewitson, 1868) stat. rest.）。两个同物异名被视为有效物种：因苏尔苏斯特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. insulsus (Draudt, 1922), stat. rev.）和黄褐特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. xantho Hayward, 1939 stat. rev.）。提出了五个新的同物异名：拉穆斯普莱西奥蛱蝶（Plesioneura lamus Mabille, 1888 syn. nov.）和安提俄珀特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶托斯卡亚种（Telemiades antiope tosca Evans, 1953 syn. nov.）为安提俄珀特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. antiope (Plötz, 1882)）的同物异名，斑点埃凯拉蛱蝶（Echelatus punctatus Mabille Boullet, 1917 syn. nov.）为埃皮卡勒斯特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. epicalus Hübner, [1819]）的同物异名，尼古拉普洛茨蛱蝶（Proteides nicola Plötz, 1882 syn. nov.）为拉奥戈努斯特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. laogonus (Hewitson, 1876)）的同物异名，弗利乌斯欧达姆斯蛱蝶（Eudamus phlius Plötz, 1881 syn. nov.）为尼科美德斯特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（T. nicomedes (Möschler, 1879)）的同物异名。为使现有名称具有稳定性，为以下六个物种指定了新模式标本：盖耶普洛茨蛱蝶（Proteides amphion Geyer, 1832）、莫施勒缢蛱蝶（Plesioneura compressa Möschler, 1877）、斯托尔阿维图斯凤蝶（Papilio avitus Stoll, 1781）、莫施勒迈格东特勒戈努斯蛱蝶（Telegonus mygdon Möschler, 1877）、普洛茨埃索普斯普洛茨蛱蝶（Proteides aesopus Plötz, 1882）和斯托尔科尔布勒凤蝶（Papilio corbulo Stoll, 1781）；并为以下19个物种指定了选模标本：威克斯布富米埃西拉蛱蝶（Aethilla buffumi Weeks, 1906）、休伊特森马佩苏斯欧达姆斯蛱蝶（Eudamus marpesus Hewitson, 1876）、马比勒米西修斯特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（Telemiades misitheus Mabille, 1888）、休伊特森佩卡希亚翼蛱蝶（Pterygospidea pekahia Hewitson, 1868）、马比勒浅黄特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（Telemiades lurideolus Mabille, 1877）、休伊特森拉奥戈努斯欧达姆斯蛱蝶（Eudamus laogonus Hewitson, 1876）、休伊特森佩尼达斯欧达姆斯蛱蝶（Eudamus penidas Hewitson, 1867）、赫里希 -沙夫费尔蜡黄特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（Telemiades ceramina Herrich-Schäffer, 1869）、肖斯巨拟特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（Telemiades megalloides Schaus, 1902）、威克斯霍伊蒂派森德斯蛱蝶（Pythonides hoyti Weeks, 1906）、休伊特森普雷斯蒂斯欧达姆斯蛱蝶（Eudamus praestes Hewitson, 1876）、胡伯纳埃皮卡勒斯特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（Telemiades epicalus Hübner, [1819]）、休伊特森法西亚斯欧达姆斯蛱蝶（Eudamus phasias Hewitson, 1867）、赫里希 -沙夫费尔大角星特勒米亚德斯蛱蝶（Telemiades arcturus Herrich-Schäffer, 1869）、马比勒布勒斑点埃凯拉蛱蝶（Echelatus punctatus Mabille Boullet, 1917）、休伊特森森特里特斯欧达姆斯蛱蝶（Eudamus centrites Hewitson, 1870）、马比勒加卢斯特勒戈努斯蛱蝶（Telegonus gallius Mabille, 1888）、莫施勒尼科美德斯特勒戈努斯蛱蝶（Telegonus nicomedes Möschler, 1879）以及普洛茨梅里斯阿泰罗提亚蛱蝶（Arteurotia meris Plötz, 1886）。
