Memo: Fletcher (1979) stated:- This genus was originally proposed in the Lithosiidae (now Arctiidae), but was transferred to the Geometridae by Snellen, 1892, Tijdschr. Ent. 35: 20. Parsons et al. (1999) included 2 species and 3 subspecies (inc. nominates) in the genus DRYMOEA. Pitkin (2002) included Sangala Walker, 1854; Nelo Walker, 1854; Melanoptilon Herrich-Schäffer, 1855; and Nelopsis Warren, 1895 as junior synonyms of Drymoea Walker, 1854.
