Memo: Fletcher & Nye (1982) stated:- A junior homonym and a junior objective synonym of Anceryx Walker, 1856. Sagra's work was published simultaneously in both French and Spanish editions; the sizes of the volumes in the two editions differ, hence the different pagination. See: ANCERYX Walker, 1856. Kitching & Cadiou (2000) list ANCERYX Lucas, 1887; ANCERYX Walker, 1856 and DILOPHONOTA Burmeister, 1855 as junior names of ERINNYIS Hübner, 1819.
