Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- L. semilineata is a junior subjective synonym of Hyamia perditalis Walker, [1859] 1858, ibidem 16: 234. Ledaea was proposed as the objective replacement name for Legna Walker, 1865. Poole (1989) included LEDAEA in the subfamily OPHIDERINAE, treated as CALPINAE by Kitching & Rawlins, in Kristensen (1999). Poole (1989) included LEGNA Walker, 1865 (preoccupied) as a junior synonym of LEDAEA Druce, 1891. Poole (1989) included 3 species in the genus LEDAEA. See also electronic Biologia centrali americana.
