Memo: Watson, Fletcher & Nye (1980) stated:- Coryphyala was established in a key in the upper part of page 98: in the lower part of the page Herrich-Schüffer included in Coryphyala his then unnamed fig.532, and two nominal species which he doubtfully included. Under the Code, Article 67(h) and 69(a), there were no nominal species eligible to be fixed as type-species when Coryphyala was established. This work is dated 1850-1858 but Gerstaecker, 1857, Arch. Naturgesch. 23 (2): 431, has stated that pages 1-52 were published in 1856. Further information is given by Fletcher, 1979, in Nye, Generic Names Moths World 3 under Dates of some important Publications.
