Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- Plötz clearly marked Pellicia as a new genus of his own by the use of the formula "n.g." ; this was no doubt because (as explained by Herrich-Schaeffer in 1870) it was he who had been the first to propose this name in manuscript. He established this genus (: 176) in a key without cited included species but shortly afterwards (: 179) he designated Pellicia macarius Herrich-Schaeffer as type-species. The name Pellicia Plötz is invalid, as it is a junior homonym of the name Pellicia Herrich -Schaeffer, 1870. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
