Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- Grote introduced the name Eumargareta as a replacement for Megalura Blanchard, 1840, which, following Scudder (1875, Proc. amer. Acad. Arts Sci., Boston 10 : 212) he erroneously supposed was invalid under the Law of Homonymy. For the foregoing reason the name Eumargareta Grote is invalid, being a junior objective synonym of Megalura Blanchard, 1840. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
