| Memo: | Fletcher (1979) stated:- A junior homonym of Leucodesmia Howard, 1895, Insect Life 7: 403 - Hymenoptera. There is no objective replacement name, but C. dispansa is congeneric with Eucrostis perlepidaria Walker, 1866, the type-species of Comostola Meyrick, 1888; the latter is thus available as a subjective replacement name. See: COMOSTOLA Meyrick, 1888. Parsons et al. (1999) included CHLOERES Turner, 1910; LEUCODESMIA Warren, 1899; and PYRRHORACHIS Warren, 1896 as junior synonyms of COMOSTOLA Meyrick, 1888. |
