Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- Proposed, unnecessarily, as an objective replacement name for Acontia Ochsenheimer, 1816, which Gistl considered to be a junior homonym of Acontias Cuvier, 1817, - Reptilia. See: ACONTIA Ochsenheimer, 1816. Poole (1989) included TARACHE Hübner, 1823; DESMOPHORA Stephens, 1829; EUPHASIA Stephens, 1830; HELIOTHERA Sodoffsky, 1837; PORROTHA Gistl, 1848; TIMA Walker, 1858; and TRICHOTARACHE Grote, 1875 as junior synonyms of ACONTIA Ochsenheimer, 1816.
