Memo: Fletcher (1979) stated:- This genus was originally proposed in the Noctuidae but has since been transferred to the Geometridae; its first published use in this family appears to have been by Turner, 1919, Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W. 44: 397. Parsons et al. (1999) included TEINOCLADIA Felder, 1874 as a junior synonym of CAPUSA Walker, 1857. Parsons et al. (1999) included 6 species in the genus CAPUSA.
