Memo: Nye & Fletcher (1991) stated:- A. splendoriferella was established by the publication of a letter; it was more fully described by Clemens, 1860. Proc. Acad. nat. Sci. Philad. 1860: 12. Coptodisca was established as an objective replacement name for Aspidisca Clemens, 1859, a junior homonym. Coptodisca was included in the "Lyonetiadae" by Fletcher, 1929, Mem. Dep. Agric. India (Ent.) 11: 55; it was included in the Heliozelidae by McDunnough, 1939, Mem. sth. Calif. Acad. Sci. 2 (1): 91. COPTODISCA was included within the family HELIOZELIDAE by Davis, in Kristensen (1999). The superfamily INCURVARIIOIDEA is treated as ADELOIDEA in 'Order Lepidoptera Linnaeus, 1758. In: Zhang, Z.-Q. (Ed.) Animal biodiversity: An outline of higher-level classification and survey of taxonomic richness'.
