Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The name Lymanopoda was introduced by Westwood on the same plate (pl. 67) of Doubleday's Gen. diurn. Lep as the name Sarromia here in question. As these names were published on the same date in the same work, the relative precedence to be accorded to them depends upon the choice made by the First Reviser. This matter is of some importance in the case of these names which are currently treated as being subjective synonyms of one another, the name Lymanopoda being in general use, while the name Sarromia is virtually forgotten. Fortunately, in this case the First Reviser gave preference to Lymanopoda, sinking Sarromia. This was Westwood himself when, as shown above, he dealt with these names in the text (: 402) of Doubleday's Gen. diurn. Lep. in July 1851. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
