Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- A junior homonym of Lampetia Meigen, 1800, Nouv. Classification Mouches :34, - Diptera. There is no objective replacement name but N. didyma is a junior subjective synonym of Phalaena secalis Linnaeus, 1758, which is congeneric with Apamea moderata Eversmann, the type-species of Mesapamea Heinicke, 1959. The latter is thus available for use as a subjective replacement name. See: MESAPAMEA Heinicke, 1959. Poole (1989) included LAMPETIA Boie, 1837 (preoccupied) as a junior synonym of MESAPAMEA Heinicke, 1959.
