Memo: Fletcher (1979) stated:- An unjustified emendation of Oporabia Stephens, 1831. The `Index universalis' was published as Fascicle 12 of the Nomencl. zool.; Oporobia is dated from the wrapper of Fascicle 12, not from its title-page which is dated 1846. Parsons et al. (1999) included OPORABIA Stephens, 1831; OPORINIA Hübner, 1825; and OPOROBIA Agassiz, 1847 as junior synonyms of EPIRRITA Hübner, 1822.
