Memo: Nye & Fletcher (1991) included GALANTHIA in the SCYTHRIDAE, treated by Hodges, in Kristensen as XYLORYCTIDAE : SCYTHRIDINAE. Nye & Fletcher (1991) stated:- G. extensella Hübner, [1825], was established as an objective replacement name for Tinea esperella Hübner, [1799], Samml. eur. Schmett. 8: pl.37 fig.255, which was a primary homonym of Tinea esperella Fabricius, 1787, Mantissa Insect. 2: 251. Unavailable designation of type-species: Phalaena obscurella Scopoli, 1763, Ent. Carniolica: 252, a nominal species not originally included in Galanthia, and not linked in synonymy with one of the originally included nominal species when cited as type-species by Fletcher, 1929, Mem. Dep. Agric. India (Ent.) 11: 97. P. obscurella is currently placed as a senior subjective synonym of G. extensella Hübner.
