Memo: Nye & Fletcher (1991) stated:- A junior homonym of Gasmara Walker, [1863] 1862, ibidem 26: 1634, - Lepid., Geometridae. There is no objective replacement name but Gasmara Walker, 1864, is placed by Sattler, 1973, Bull. Br. Mus. nat. Hist. (Ent.) 28: 204, as a senior subjective synonym of Antiochtha Meyrick, 1905. The latter is therefore available for use as a subjective replacement name. Gasmara Walker, 1864 was included in the "Gelechiadae" by Fletcher, 1929, Mem. Dep. Agric. India (Ent.) 11: 98; it was transferred to the Timyridae, now Lecithoceridae, by Clarke, 1955, Cat. Type Specimens Microlepid. Br. Mus. nat. Hist. descr. E. Meyr 1: 20.
