Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- Neocalymnia was used by Druce without any indication that it was new even though his new species, described on the same page, were marked sp. n. The generic name was probably obtained from Hampson as an identification and was used and unintentionally made nomenclaturally available by Druce before Hampson's generic description was published. Poole (1989) included NEOCALYMNIA in the subfamily AMPHIPYRINAE, subsequently restricted to the genus AMPHIPYRA by Kitching & Rawlins, in Kristensen (1999). Other genera formerly treated in the subfamily AMPHIPYRINAE are treated as HADENINAE by Kitching & Rawlins (loc. cit.). Poole (1989) included only 1 species in the genus NEOCALYMNIA.
