Memo: Fletcher & Nye (1984) stated:- A junior homonym of ACARA Heckel, 1840, Annln wien. Mus. Naturg. 2 (3): 338 - Pisces. There is no objective replacement name, but A. morosella was placed by Hampson, 1896 Fauna Br. India (Moths) 4: 8, as a senior subjective synonym of Ertzica maximella Walker, 1866, the type-species of ERTZICA Walker, 1866; the latter is thus available for use as a subjective replacement name.
