Memo: Fletcher (1979) stated:- Chrysocraspeda has been used as the original generic name for species which are now in the Noctuidae. Parsons et al. (1999) included CRYSOCRASPEDA Hampson, 1895; CHRYSOLENE Warren, 1897; HETEROCTENIS Meyrick, 1897; and PTOCHOPHYLE Warren, 1896 as junior synonyms of CHRYSOCRASPEDA Swinhoe, 1893.
