Abstract: An overview is given of all species of the genus Jamides Hübner, 1819, occurring in West Papua and Papua. All species are illustrated with the exception of Jamides minor s.l. and Jamides coritus setekwaensis Tite, 1960. Two subspecies are described as new: Jamides philatus kapaurus ssp. nov. and Jamides alecto papuana ssp. nov. Three further taxa of the bochus group are discussed in open nomenclature: Jamides nov. spec. aff. bochus (Stoll, 1782), Jamides sp. cf. seminiger richardi and Jamides sp. aff. seminiger richardi. Jamides purpurata Grose-Smith, 1894 comb. nov. is again raised to species rank, L. philatus aegithus Fruhstorfer, 1916 syn. nov. is regarded as a synonym of Jamides cyta amphissina (Grose-Smith, 1894) and Cupido (Lampides) pseudeuchylas Strand, 1911 syn. nov. is a new synonym of J. coritus coritus (Guérin-Meneville, 1831).
Several type specimens are illustrated, some for the first time and a lectotype is designated for Cupido (Lampides) pseudeuchylas. A few species found outside West Papua and Papua are illustrated for comparison. Names of synonyms are listed only for taxa described from Western New Guinea.

Tiga taksa dari grup bochus dibahas lebih jauh dalam nomenklatur terbuka: Jamides nov. spec. aff. bochus (Stoll, 1782), Jamides sp. cf. seminiger richardi dan Jamides sp. aff. seminiger richardi.
