Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- P. nictitans is a junior subjective synonym of Phalaena oculea Linnaeus, 1761, Fauna Suecica (Edn. 2): 321. Incorrect type-species designation: Phalaena secalis Linnaeus, 1758, a name not, originally included in Smphiposa, and not linked with one of the, originally included names when cited by Tams, 1939, Entomologist 72: 136. Berio, 1966, Annali Mus. civ. Stor. nat. Giacomo Doria 76: 48, considered that Franclemont's designation was incorrect as there was no mention of the combination Amphipoea nictitans. I cannot agree that this invalidated the designation. Poole (1989) included 20 species in the genus AMPHIPOEA.
