| Memo: | Ramapesia is the objective replacement name for name Paramesia Stephens 1829 by Razowski, 1981, Monografie Fauny Polski 10 : 208. Nye & Fletcher (1991) stated:- When Fernald designated as type-species Tortrix ferrugana [Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775, a nominal species not originally included in Paramesia, he also placed gnomana, a nominal species originally included in Paramesia, as a junior synonym of ferrugana. Under the Code (Edn 3), Article 69(a)(v), this designation constitutes the fixation of the originally included nominal species as the type-species. Unavailable designation of type-Species: (1) Tortrix cerusana Hübner, [1799], was designated by Boisduval, 1836, Hist. nat. Insectes (Spec. gén. Lépid.) 1: 149. In the Introduction to the volume, pages 1-154, Boisduval reviewed earlier classifications of Lepidoptera and designated as many as three different type-species for each generic name. In his "Exposé de notre Méthode", pages 155-690, no type-species designation was made for any of the genera he himself used. Under the Code (Edn 3), Article 69(a)(iv), the type-species designation of an author is eligible for consideration if he states that it is the type".. and if it is clear that the author accepts it as the type-species". Boisdival's type designation, although clearly stated, do not fufill the last requirement and so are unavailable. Even though Boisduval's 1836 work was well known to lepidopterists, the type-designation contained in a have not been accepted by Hemming or by other authors. (2) Phalaena gnomana Clerk was attributed, incorrectly, to Linnaeus and was cited by Westwood, 1840, Introd. mod. Classif. Insects 2 (Synopsis Genera Br. Insects): 108, as the type-species of Acleris Hübner, [1825]. Although Westwood placed Paramesia a synonym of Acleris this does not constitute an available designation of type-species for Paramesia as has been accepted by some authors. Paramesia was again proposed by Stephens, 1829 [July], Syst. Cat. Br. Insects (2): 187. See also: Rampapesia Razowski, 1981.
