Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The above was the only species placed in this genus by Edwards, though formerly some authors took the view that he should be treated as having included in it a second species (Papilio daunus Cramer) cited in a note by Butler quoted by Edwards in a supplementary note added to his description of this genus. That this view was incorrect and that Hesperia zampa was the type-species by monotypy was first clearly established by Lindsey in 1925 (Ann. ent. Soc. Amer. 18 : 91). (The name Lintneria Butler (in Edwards) is discussed in detail in the notes on that genus [Lintneria Butler, 1877]). The taxon represented by the nominal species Hesperia zampa Edwards is currently treated subjectively on taxonomic grounds as being the same as that represented by the older-established nominal species Leucochitonea pulverulenta Felder (R.), 1869 (Verh. zool.-bot. Ges. Wien 19 : 478). The name Lintneria Edwards is invalid under the Law of Homonymy, being a junior homonym of Lintneria Butler, [Nov. 1876] (Trans. zool. Soc Lond. 9 : 620), a name bestowed upon a genus of Sphingid moths. It has been replaced by the name Systasea Edwards, June 1877. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
