Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- Scudder erroneously believed that Doubleday's plate 30 was published before the relevant r portion of the text (: 231), and it was on this basis that he stated that Haematera thysbe was the type-species of this genus. In actual fact, the plate and the text were published on the same date (9th July 1849). In the text Doubleday added a second species as belonging to the genus Haematera. Scudder was therefore mistaken in thinking that the above species was the type-species by monotypy. Luckily, this species was one of the species included in the text, and accordingly it is the type-species through Scudder's action. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
