| Memo: | Nye (1975) and Fletcher & Nye (1984) stated:- A junior homonym of Aenigma Newman, 1836, Ent. Mag. 3: 499 - Insecta, Coleoptera. There is no objective replacement name but A. mirificum was stated by Dyar, [1903] 1902, Bull. U.S. natn. Mus. 52: 219, to be a junior subjective synonym of Noctua saga Fabricius, 1787, the type-species of Hyblaea Fabricius, 1793. The latter is thus available for use as a subjective replacement name. |
