Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- Acroriodes was used by Druce without any indication that it was new even though his new species, described on the same page, were marked sp. n. The generic name was probably obtained from Hampson as an identification and was unintentionally made nomenclaturally available before Hampson's generic description was published. Poole (1989) included ACRORIODES in the subfamily AMPHIPYRINAE, subsequently restricted to the genus AMPHIPYRA by Kitching & Rawlins, in Kristensen (1999). Other genera formerly treated in the subfamily AMPHIPYRINAE are treated as HADENINAE by Kitching & Rawlins (1999). Poole (1989) included ACRORIODES Hampson, 1908 as a junior synonym of ACRORIODES Druce, 1908. Poole (1989) included only 1 species in the genus ACRORIODES.
