Notes

Authority: Walker 1850; Not from India: Metcalf (1963) incorrectly stated India in reference to Dohrn (1859) who listed it with an unknown locality. The species was described by Walker (1850) without a known locality. The type specimen is not in the NHMUK and this species has not been mentioned in literature since Distant (1906a). This species was not included in the Fauna of British India by Distant (1906c).
