Memo: Fletcher (1979) stated:- A junior homonym of Fidonia Treitschke, 1825, in Ochsenheimer, Schmett. Eur. 5. (2): 435 - Lepid. Geometridae. There is no objective replacement name, but G. pinetaria is a senior subjective synonym of Speranza sylvaria Curtis, 1828, the type-species of Speranza Curtis, 1828; the latter is therefore available for use as a subjective replacement name. G. pinetaria is also a junior subjective synonym of Geometra brunneata Thunberg, 1784, Diss. ent. sistens Insecta Suecica (1): 9. See also: Eupisteria Boisduval, 1840. See: SPERANZA Curtis, 1828.
