Memo: Watson, Fletcher & Nye (1980) stated:- Thylacigyna is dated from the wrapper of livraison 2, and not from the title-page of the work, 1858. The genus Thylacigyna Rambur, 1866 is treated as a synonym of Clethrogyna Rambur, 1866 in Holloway 1999 (The Moths of Borneo Part 5 Family Lymantriidae) (pers. comm. Harri Jalava 13-May-2004).
