Memo: Watson, Fletcher & Nye (1980) stated:- A junior homonym of Actea Germar, 1842, in Münster, Beitr. zur Petrefacten-Kunde 5: 85, Insecta, Hemiptera. There is no objective replacement name, but H. monilis is currently treated as being congeneric with Mitradaemon velutinum Butler, 1878, the type-species of Mitradaemon Butler, 1878; the latter is thus available for use as a subjective replacement name.
