Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- Astrapetis was also used as Astrapetis Hübner, [1821] 1816, Verz. bekannter Schmett.: 219, for nine species including distincta. I am following Hemming, 1937, Hübner 2: 159 in giving priority to the Index. Lepid. usage. Incorrect type-species designation: Phalaena genistae Villers, 1789, (a name not originally included in the Index although it was included in the Verzeichniss) when cited by Moore, 1884, Lepid. Ceylon 3: 38. Astrapetis is a junior objective synonym of Achatia Hübner, [1813]. See: ACHATIA Hübner, [1813].
