Memo: Nye & Fletcher (1991) included AMERICIDES in the family BLASTOBASIDAE, treated by Hodges, in Kristensen (1999) as a subfamily of COLEOPHORIDAE. Nye & Fletcher (1991) stated:- Americides was established, unnecessarily, as an objective replacement name for Dryope Chambers, 1874, a junior homonym. The objective replacement name Dryoperia Coolidge, 1909, had already been established.
