Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The text relating to this generic name was not published until after Doubleday's death, appearing in [1850] in Westwood's continuation (ibid. (2) : 259). The name Amnosia first appeared in print in 1844 in Doubleday's List. Spec. lep. Ins. Brit. Mus. 1 : 88, but it aquired no status in nomenclature by reason of being so published, for Doubleday provided it with no diagnosis and included no established nominal species in it, the only specific name cited (decora) being at that time a manuscript name. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
