Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- This is another of the numerous cases in which Boisduval put a manuscript name into irregular circulation but did not publish it until many years later ; as will be seen from the immediately preceding note, the name Ocalis Boisduval was already in existence as a manuscript name as far back as 1851, in which year it was in validly published by Westwood in a synonymy. As published by Boisduval in 1870, the name Ocalis Boisduval is invalid as a junior objective synonym of Oressinoma Doubleday, [1849]. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
