title: Malesian butterfly (sub) species list

description: The table lists synonyms in the second column with the current accepted information in the other columns according to the source in the 15th culumn. ID codes in the first column were used in the BSEAI project as well as in the Naturalis Malesian butterflies AI model.The taxonomic dataset is based on several sources for the species and subspecies names and synonyms:Personal communication with Jan Moonen <i>(</i><i>Papilionidae</i><i>)</i>Personal communication with Chris Davenport <i>(</i><i>Delias</i><i>,</i><i> </i><i>Parnassius</i><i> </i><i>&</i><i> </i><i>Colias</i><i>)</i>Personal communication with Rienk de Jong <i>(</i><i>Hesperiidae</i><i> </i><i>and other species from</i><i> </i><i>Malesian</i><i> </i><i>area)</i>Lamas, G., C.
