Memo: Nye & Fletcher (1991) stated:- An unjustified emendation of Micropterix Hübner, [1825]. Under the Code (Edn 3), Article 33(b)(i), Zeller's spelling was "demonstrably intentional" as he treated Micropterix Hübner and Cosmopterix Hübner (on page 210 of his same work) in a similiar way by changing the -ix to -yx.
