Memo: Poole (1989) included BALSA in the subfamily AMPHIPYRINAE, 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 GARGAZA Walker, 1866; ASISYRA Grote, 1873; and NOLAPHANA Grote, 1873 as junior synonyms of BALSA Walker, 1860. Poole (1989) included 3 species in the genus BALSA.
