Memo: Fletcher (1979) stated:- Thysanopyga was included by Herrich-Schäffer in his `Synopsis familiarum Lepidopterorum' which was published first in Syst. Bearbeitung Schmett. Eur. 6:82-133. The title-page of volume 6 is dated 1843-1856 but Herrich-Schäffer, 1869, CorrespBl. zool.-min. Ver. Regensburg 23:214, has stated that Heft 68 (which included the Synopsis) was published in 1855; the Heft wrapper is so dated. The same Synopsis was included in Samml. neuer oder wenig bekannter aussereur. Schmett. 1: 2-52; the title-page of this work is dated 1850-1858 but Gerstaecker, 1857, Arch. Naturgesch. 23 (2): 431, has stated that pages 1-52 were published in 1856. Further information is given in the Introduction to this volume under Dates of some important Publications. Parsons et al. (1999) included PACHYDIA Guenée, 1857 as a junior synonym of THYSANOPYGA Herrich-Schäffer, 1855. Parsons et al. (1999) included 12 species in the genus THYSANOPYGA Herrich-Schäffer, 1855 and a further 27 species in the genus "THYSANOPYGA".
