Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The name Ocyba was introduced by Lindsey as a replacement for Caecina Hewitson, 1868, which is invalid under the Law of Homonymy. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). .See images at Butterflies of America where it is treated in the subfamily Eumatinae..
