Apallaga Strand, 1911 is confirmed as a valid genus

Apallaga Strand, 1911 (type species Apallaga separata Strand, 1911 , currently a subspecies of Pterygospidea mokeezi Wallengren, 1857 ) is not monophyletic with Celaenorrhinus Hübner, 1819 (type species Papilio eligius Stoll, 1781 ) and genetically distant from other genera ( Fig. 3 ). Therefore, it is confirmed as a valid genus ( Libert 2014).
