Hemithea aestivaria( Huebner, 1789) Hemithea aestivaria alboundulata(Hedemann, 1879) ("stat. nov.", followed by "syn. rev.")
Notes Hemithea alboundulatawas a junior synonym of H. aestivariauntil Leraut (2009)elevated it to subspecies. Muelleret al. (2019)found the justification for this taxonomic change to be too vague and, consequently, revived its status as a synonym of H. aestivaria.
