Memo: Fletcher (1979) stated:- Gumppenberg originally proposed the generic name Eustegania in a key on page 334 for his genus no. 170; in the Synopsis Generum on page 340 of the same volume he renamed genus no. 170 Calomicta. Gumppenberg probably believed Eustegania to be preoccupied by Stegania Guenée, [1845], for in a similar case he proposed Catastictis unnecessarily as a replacement name for Eufitchia Packard, 1876, in the mistaken belief that it was preoccupied by Fitchia Stâl, 1859. When Calomicta was fully diagnosed by Gumppenberg in a later part of the same work in 1896, the only included species was Stegania dalmataria Guenée, 1857. Parsons et al. (1999) included CALOMICTA Gumppenberg, 1887; EUSTEGANIA Gumppenberg, 1887; and TERPNOMICTA Lederer, 1852 as junior synonyms of STEGANIA Guenée, 1845.
