Memo: Watson, Fletcher & Nye (1980) stated:- A junior homonym of Aspa Adams & Adams, [1853] 1858, Genera recent Mollusca 1: 106, - Mollusca. There is no objective replacement name but P. heliconia is the senior subjective synonym of P. silvandra Stoll, the type-species of Hypsa Hübner, [1819]. The latter is therefore available for use as a subjective replacement name. Aspa was established as a subgenus of Hypsa Hübner, [1819].
