Lycaena
Lycaena
EOL Text
A holarctic genus, with the exception of four species occurring in New Zealand and two in South Africa (orus group). Generic names have been proposed for most of the species groups and also for individual species that do not fit into the species groups, but these are all viewed as synonyms by most modern researchers.

Lycaena is a butterfly genus.The genus range is Holarctic, with the exception of four species found in New Zealand, two in South Africa, one in New Guinea and one in Java. It is commonly divided into several subgenera, such as Antipodolycaena. Many formerly independent genera are now subsumed within Lycaena; the genus Gaiedes may also belong here.[citation needed] Many of the subgenera, species-groups and species listed here may be synonyms.
