Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- Available, but without included species until Hampson, 1910, ibidem 9:127. A junior homonym of Leucosigma Druce, 1908 April. This generic name probably originated from Hampson, but was used and unintentionally made nomenclaturally available by Druce prior to its proposal and generic description by Hampson for the same concept. See: LEUCOSIGMA Druce, 1908 April. Poole (1989) included LEUCOSIGMA Hampson, 1908 (preoccupied) as a junior synonym of LEUCOSIGMA Druce, 1908.
