Memo: Nye & Fletcher (1991) stated:- Actenista Turner, 1941, is not preoccupied by * Actenista Dejean, 1833, Cat. Coléoptéres (Edn 2): 101. Dejean originally included 7 nomina nuda all attributed to himself, from South America. The generic name and the 7 specific names were repeated by Dejean as nomina nuda in his third edition but no later usage has been found. * Actenista was not included in the catalogue of genus-group names of the Coleoptera by Schenkling, 1940, Coleopterorum Cat. 170: 52-502. See also: Heterolecta Turner, 1944.
