Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- Hübner cited the above species as Erythia labdaca, citing immediately after that name the above reference to labdacus in the Uitl. Kapellen. Sometimes Hübner adopted a new variant spelling for the name for some species, citing immediately after that variant spelling the name in its original spelling, with its reference. There is however no reason to believe that this is what he did on the present occasion, for in the case of adjectival specific names he had the habit of changing the termination where that was necessary in order to make the word concerned agree in gender with the name of the genus in which he placed the species concerned. This is no doubt what he did on the present occasion, changing the name labdacus to labdaca to make it agree in gender with the name Erythia which he used for the genus in which he placed that species. (Actually, in making this change, Hübner was in error, for the word "Labdacus" is a Proper Name and not an adjective). The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
