Taxonomic history. Dynastor darius, described as Papilio darius, was transferred to Pavonia by Godart ([1824]) and to Dynastor by Westwood (1851). Several authors interpreted Papilio anaxarete, and Dynastor stygianus as synonyms of Papilio darius. In addition to Papilio anaxarete and Dynastor stygianus, Hayward (1951) considered Dynastor darius ictericus and Dynastor darius faenius as synonyms of Papilio darius. Casagrande (2004) considered Dynastor populus as a synonym of Papilio anaxarete and Dynastor mardonius as a synonym of Dynastor darius ictericus. Due to the sampling location, the citation by Campos (1927) probably refers to Dynastor stygianus stat. rest.
Type material. Papilio darius Fabricius, 1775 was described based on an unspecified number of specimens from Brasilia [= Brazil, probably from the vicinity of Rio de Janeiro (Ilha Rasa in Guanabara Bay)] in the Banks collection, now in NHMUK. One female syntype was found at the NHMUK, with the following labels: / Type/ B.M. TYPE No. Rh. 6150 Papilio darius ♀ Fab. / Papilio darius Fab. Entom. p. 482, n. 173. To stabilize the nomenclature of this taxon, this specimen is hereby designated as the lectotype of Papilio darius Fabricius, 1775, and the following labels will be attached: / LECTOTYPUS / Lectotypus Papilio darius Fabricius, 1775, Piovesan, Casagrande & O. Mielke det. 2024/.
Papilio anaxarete Cramer, 1776 was described based on an unspecified number of specimens from Suriname. One female syntype was found at the NHMUK, with the following labels: / Nº 23. ANAXARETE. Cr. I. 95. A.B. & IV. 374. A.B./ FELDER COLLN./. To stabilize the nomenclature of this taxon, this specimen is hereby designated as the lectotype of Papilio anaxarete Cramer, 1776, and the following labels will be attached: / LECTOTYPUS / Lectotypus Papilio anaxarete Cramer, 1776, Piovesan, Casagrande & O. Mielke det. 2024/.
Dynastor darius ictericus Stichel, 1904 was described based on one male [holotype] from Sapucay [= Sapucaí or Sapucái] n[ear] Villa Rica, [Paraguarí, Guairá, Paraguay] leg. Forster, Mus. Tring. The male [holotype] is deposited at the NHMUK, with the following labels: / Sapucay, n. Villa Rica, (Foster)./ Dynast. darius forma ictericus Stichel Type/.
Dynastor mardonius Fruhstorfer, 1911 was named based on the illustration of at least one female from Paraguay. One female syntype was found at the NHMUK, with the following labels: / Type/ Type H T/ Fruhstorfer Coll. B.M. 1937-285./ Paraguay ex coll. Fruhstorfer/ darius mardonius Fruhst. /. To stabilize the nomenclature of this taxon, this specimen is hereby designated as the lectotype of Dynastor mardonius Fruhstorfer, 1911, and the following labels will be attached: / LECTOTYPUS / Lectotypus Dynastor mardonius Fruhstorfer, 1911, Piovesan, Casagrande & O. Mielke det. 2024/.
Dynastor darius faenius Fruhstorfer, 1912 was described based on three males and two females from Candelária, Rio Grande do Sul, [Brazil]. Two male syntypes were found at the NHMUK, with the following labels (1): / Type/ Rio Grande Brasil. Fruhstorfer/ faenius. 5-129 Fruh./ Fruhstorfer Coll. B.M. 1937-285./; and (2): / Type/ Rio Grande Brasil. Fruhstorfer/. D. darius faenius Fruhst. / Fruhstorfer Coll. B.M. 1937-285./ To stabilize the nomenclature of this taxon, the first syntype is hereby designated as the lectotype of Dynastor darius faenius Fruhstorfer, 1912, and the following labels will be attached: / LECTOTYPUS / Lectotypus Dynastor darius faenius Fruhstorfer, 1912, Piovesan, Casagrande & O. Mielke det. 2024/. The second syntype becomes automatically a paralectotype, and the following labels will be attached: / PARALECTOTYPUS / Paralectotypus Dynastor darius faenius Fruhstorfer, 1912, Piovesan, Casagrande & O. Mielke det. 2024/.
Dynastor populus Röber, 1927 was described based on one male [holo]type from Französ. Guayana [= French Guiana]. M. M. Casagrande, O. H. H. Mielke, and G. Lamas did not find the male [holo]type. It is possible that, as for other species described by Röber, the [holo]type of Dynastor populus became lost as a direct influence of war (Müller & Tennent 2018). Therefore, a female neotype of Dynastor populus Röber, 1927 is hereby designated to stabilize the nomenclature of this taxon. The specimen selected as neotype has the same morphological characters as illustrated in the original description and is deposited at the MfN, with the following labels: / coll. v. Schenck Surinam / populus Int. en. Z. Guben v. 21 Röber 1927/; the following labels will be attached: / NEOTYPUS / Neotypus Dynastor populus Röber, 1927, Piovesan, Casagrande & O. Mielke det. 2024/.
Diagnosis. Dynastor darius differs from Dynastor stygianus stat. rest., a morphologically similar and closely related species (Fig. 1), in having the VFW apical patch generally extending only to the apex, while Dynastor stygianus stat. rest. usually has this patch extending to the outer margin (Figs 8–9, 19–20). The male genitalia of both species are very similar (Figs 10, 21), but the female genitalia are not. While the female of Dynastor darius has a larger corpus bursae with two parallel signa and a broader lamella antevaginalis, the female of Dynastor stygianus stat. rest. has a smaller corpus bursae without signa and a smaller lamella antevaginalis (Figs 11, 22).
Variation. FW, length: male 46–56 mm (n=5), female 55–62 mm (n=5); width and color of the band that extends from the costal margin to M 3; size and shape of the spots between M 3 and 2A. VFW, shape and color of postdiscal patches and spots. DHW, width and color of the band that extends from the costal margin to CuA 1. VHW, number, size, and shape of the spots.
Comments. Dynastor darius shows variation in the wing pattern, which may explain the number of names proposed as subspecies. The examination of a series of specimens from several locations and the low DNA barcode divergence between specimens from different locations showed that many of the characters that supported the proposals of names, such as differences in the general color, the color of spots and bands, the shape of spots, the width of bands, and body size are variable. An example of variation is that some specimens from different locations in Brazil (Pará, Mato Grosso, Rio de Janeiro) and Peru (Huánuco) have a narrower band and smaller spots on the dorsal surface of the forewings. However, genitalia does not present differences compared to other specimens of Dynastor darius, and even genetic distances do not corroborate the separation of species/subspecies. Therefore, we consider as synonymous with Dynastor darius the following names: Papilio anaxarete Cramer, 1776, Dynastor darius ictericus Stichel, 1904, Dynastor mardonius Fruhstorfer, 1911, Dynastor darius faenius Fruhstorfer, 1912 and Dynastor populus Röber, 1927. Dynastor darius is sympatric with Dynastor macrosiris and Dynastor napoleon.
Natural history. Information on the immature stages of Dynastor darius can be found in Burmeister (1873, 1879), Monte (1934), Rothschild (1916), Biezanko (1960a; b), Urich & Emmel (1991b), Romero et al. (2005); hybridization with Dynastor napoleon in Otero & Casagrande (1992). Dynastor darius flies in the morning and evening twilight on the coast of Paraná, south of Brazil, at an elevation of 100 m. According to Biezanko (1960b), it is bivoltine, flying in March, April, May, October, and November; based on the label data, we found that the species flies throughout the year. Urich & Emmel (1991b) mentioned that Dynastor darius and other Dynastor species do not feed in adulthood. However, Romero et al. (2005) observed adults at dusk feeding on decaying mangoes in two locations in Venezuela: Palmichal (Carabobo) and Choroní (Aragua).
