Vidius tanna (de Jong, 1983) comb. nov.

Genomic sequencing of the holotype of Cobalopsis tanna de Jong, 1983 (type locality in Suriname), currently kept in its original genus, reveals that it is not monophyletic with Cobalopsis Godman, 1900 (type species Pamphila edda Mabille, 1891 , which is a junior subjective synonym of Hesperia autumna Plötz, 1882 ) and instead originates within Vidius Evans, 1955 (type species Narga vidius Mabille, 1891 ) ( Fig. 58). Therefore, we transfer this species from Cobalopsis to Vidius forming a new combination Vidius tanna (de Jong, 1983) , comb. nov.
