Memo: Fletcher & Nye (1982) stated:- Uestiudia was established as the objective replacement name for Westwoodia Houlbert, 1918. Both Westwoodia Houlbert, 1918, and its objective replacement name Uestiudia Oiticica, 1955, were established in the Castniidae. Their type-species, Castnia pelopia Druce, 1890, was transferred to the genus Xenandra Felder, 1865, in the Erycinidae, now Riodinidae, by Talbot, 1919, Novit. zool. 26: 30 and therefore Westwoodia Houlbert, 1918, and Uestiudia Oiticica, 1955, must also be transferred to the Rhopalocera, Riodinidae. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
