http://zoobank.org/ 1D2F2454-EFC9-473A-A91D-17097BB3DB03

Type species. Symmachia ocellata Hewitson, 1867 View in CoL .

Definition. Currently in the genus Seco Hall & Harvey, 2002 (type species Charis calagutis Hewitson, 1871 View in CoL ), but is not monophyletic with its type species, and instead forms an independent lineage in early radiation of the core Riodinini View in CoL group (Fig. 29). Diagnostic characters for this new genus are as those given for Seco (except the characters specific to either Seco calagutis (Hewitson, 1871) or Exoplisia aphanis

( Stichel, 1910) comb. nov. [then placed in Seco ]) on pages 415-417 in Hall and Harvey (2002). Readily distinguished from its relatives by a black yellow-bordered eyespot at forewing apex.

Etymology. The name is a feminine noun in the nominative singular formed as a fusion of the type species name with the name of the genus it was formerly placed in: O [cellata] + [Se] co for its eyespots.

Species included. Only the type species.

Parent taxon. Tribe Riodinini Grote, 1895 .
