Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- Eudorea has been used as the original generic name for species which are now in the Noctuidae. Fletcher & Nye (1984, Generic Names of Moths of the World) stated:- Eudorea was established unnecessarily as an objective replacement name for Scoparia Haworth, 1811, in the belief that it was preoccupied by Scoparia Linnaeus, a genus of plants. See also: Phegea Gistl, 1848; Eudoroea Bruand, [1851]; Eudoria Chapman, 1912.
