Memo: Watson, Fletcher & Nye (1980) stated:- A junior homonym of Anthora Doubleday, 1844, List Specimens lepid. Insects Colln Br. Mus. 1: 99, Lepid., Nymphalidae. There is no objective replacement name, but A. subrosea is congeneric with Bombyx coenosa Hübner, [1808], the type-species of Laelia Stephens, 1828. The latter is therefore available for use as a subjective replacement name.
