Introduction
Summary
The present catalogue includes 7433 names of taxonomic enteties (including

nomenclaturally unavailable names). Among them are 4412 species currently accepted as
valid in 532 genera of Notodontidae and 8 species of Oenosandridae. In 1892 Kirby listed
850 Notodontidae in 231 genera. The last comprehensive catalogues listed 2358 species
in 368 genera of Notodontidae s.str. (Gaede, 1934), 392 species in 40 genera of Dioptidae
(Bryk, 1930) and 100 species in 21 genera of Thaumetopoeidae (Kiriakoff, 1970) – totally
3389 species in 429 genera.
27 cases of new synonymies on genus level and 72 new synonymies on species group
level are reported and 16 status of taxa are changed. One Neotype and 24 Lectotypes are
designated to stabilize the nomenclature. Due to recognized homonymies 4 replacement
names are proposed. The catalogue include 107 new combinations of Notodontidae.
One genus, Crambometra Prout, 1915 with three species, is transferred to Geometridae,
Ennominae. Three species, Dasychira nora Pagenstecher, 1903, Ilema henleyi Warren
& Rothschild, 1905 and Gissarus relictus (Kozhantshikov, 1950), are transferred from
Lymantriidae to Notodontidae.
The family Notodontidae

The Notodontidae represent a family in the Noctuoidea, the largest super family of the
Lepidoptera with about 50,000 currently recognized species worldwide. Noctuoide are
characterized by a methathoracic tympanal organ in the imagines. A single character to
characterize notodontid imagines (in the present used classification) has not yet been found.
The larvae are characterized by presence of microsetae MD1 and MD2 on segment Ab1 and
etra setae or setal group on segment Ab10.
Miller (1991) placed the Thaumetopoeidae and the Dioptidae as subfamilies in
the Notodontidae and separated the Oenosandridae as a distinct family from the
Thaumetopoeidae. However Thaumetopoeinae, Dioptinae and Platychasmatinae standing
phylogenetically somewhat far from the rest of the Notodontidae. The old-world distributed
Thaumetopoeinae shares several characters with the Lymantriidae and might be more close
to this unit (now placed in the Erebidae as a subfamily). The Platychasmatinae, a small and
unique subfamily (quadrifid forewing venation, green coloured forewings, male genitalia like
noctuids, larva hairy) might be a bridge to the Noctuidae, as they share several characters
with them. The Platychasmatinae are restricted to Asia. Dioptinae are a distinct unit by
external appearance of the imagines, host plants of the caterpillars from the rest of the
Notodontidae, restricted to America, but sharing some important characters with the other
Notodontidae, including genitalia morphology. Miller, 2009: 7 treats it as the sister-group of
the Nystaleinae.
7
18 subfamilies are currently recognized within the Notodontidae.
For the application of family group names, most cases were followed by the work of Speidel
& Naumann, 2005 (with a few additions). This work also gives a good overview of the
history of the classification of the Noctuoidea families including the Notodontidae. Aspects
of molecular phylogenetics of the Noctuoidea including a few examples of Notodontidae are
discussed in Zahiri et. alii 2011.
It was beyond the focus of this work to establish a new classification in the Notodontidae.

Fig. 1. Relationship of Noctuidae, Oenosandridae and the Notodontidae (including their

subfamilies) – simple, two dimensional view.
The growth of our knowledge of the Notodontidae (using the example of the taxa
described since Linnaeus) is not homogeneous (Figs. 1-5) in time, geographical region and
in the various subfamilies of the Notodontidae. A saturation of the number of species known
to science has not yet been reached.
The number of described taxa that have been recognized as synonymous to known species
(virtual knowledge growth) appears to be – except for the small group of Thaumetopoeinae
– but not to increase exponentially.

Types and taxonomy
The bases of taxonomy are the name-bearing types. The type determines the application of
a name for each taxon under the rules of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature
(„Code“).
These are:
• Family group names, determined by a type genus (all units in rank over a genus, including
subtribes, tribes and subfamilies),
• Genus group names, determined by a type species (subgenus and genus) and
• Species group names, determined by a type specimen (subspecies, species).
The bibliographical source of almost all of the listed taxa (including the infrasubspecific
entities) has been checked by myself. Only a few (n<10), fortunately mostly less important
references, remain unchecked in the original due to unattainability. The full reference (in the
chapter “references”) gives in square brackets [] the real year of publication if the year of the
real publishing date is different from the year printed on the title of the original publication.
The taxonomy of the genus group names (including their type species and exact year of
descriptions) follows mostly the excellent and exhaustive work of Watson, Fletcher & Nye,
1980. Only in a few cases were corrections or additions necessary.
Infrasubspecific entities (in rank lower than that of a subspecies, e.g. aberration, individual
form) are not subject of recognition by the Code and their names are not protected. The
Code Art. 10.2 says: „An infrasubspecific name is not available [Art. 45.5] from its original
publication, unless it was published before 1961 for a “variety” or “form” and is deemed
to be available under Art. 45.6.4.1. If an author uses a name, previously published at
infrasubspecific rank, in a way which makes it available for a species or subspecies, that
author thereby establishes it as a new name and it takes his or her authorship“.
For the present work infrasubspecific names are included and cited with reference but
with addition „(infrasubspecific)“, when it is clear from the original description, that an
infrasubspecific entity was described. In the case of the Notodontidae, most infrasubspecific
taxa (> 90%) are described from Middle Europe. They are mostly given here just as a
literature reference and without “type-locality” and type depository. Only in a few cases,
if subsequent authors raised infrasubspecific taxa to subspecific status (making them
nomenclaturally available) and in cases of older descriptions outside of Europe (unless it is
not evident, that an infrasubspecific taxon was described, e.g. a fourth name was added to
a trinomen) precautionary full information of the infrasubspecific taxon are given.
The species group taxa are listed in their original spelling regardless of the gender of
the current generic combination. The name is cited together with its author and year of
description. Nomenclaturally valid taxa are printed in bold, but unavailable names are not.
Incorrect original spellings are listed also in brackets after the reference (Code Art. 32.5.2.
“A name published with a diacritic or other mark, ligature, apostrophe, or hyphen, or a
species-group name published as separate words of which any is an abbreviation, is to be
corrected“ – the following subchapters of this article, from 32.5.2.1 to 32.5.2.7 lists a lot of
special cases). In the case of recognized synonyms or nomenclaturally unavailable names
only the original spelling (without corrections) is given.
Unjustified emendations and misspellings of subsequent authors are not listed, because
10
they are usually without nomenclatural availability.
The type locality is given in the original spelling of the original description. The country
(actual state) is added in square brackets [], if not given in the original description. The entire
paper of the original description, including the headline was used for the description of the
type locality. The information on the labels of the type specimen may differ from those given
in the original publication, but the stated place of origin of the type-material is that given in
the original description of a species-group name. If other and additional information of the
type locality were available, they are included in square brackets. If the information comes
from the label of the type specimens they are marked additional between quotation marks “”.
Seemingly wrong type localities of the original description or major differences to the
original label of the type specimen are discussed under remarks. In the case of syntypes
from different localities all localities are listed as type localities, separated by a semicolon“;”
(the country is listed once at the at the beginning of such a locality list). When a species was
transferred to a genus other than the original one, the author’s name and year of publication
are in parantheses (). In cases where information on the author is retrieved from an external
source, the authorship is put in square brackets [].
The status of the type (s), e.g. Holotype (HT), Syntypes (ST), Lectotype (LT) respectively
Neotype is followed by the gender of the type specimen. If the gender of the primary type
was found on examination to be different from the gender given in the original description it
was replaced. In the case of syntypes the number of the series of syntypes is given according
to the number stated in the original description. In the case of designated Lectotypes the
Paralectotype series (formerly Syntypes) is not mentioned. Allotypes and Neallotypes are
principially not mentioned explicitely. The type depository, where a primary type is actually
stored, or where it was last stored is given. In cases when I was able to verify the type
depository by examination, published type catalogues or personal communication of the
curator of the collection, an asterisk * was placed. If Syntypes are distributed in several

collections, these are listed. An asterisk was added also if only one syntype was found in this
holdings. In some species I was unable to trace type specimens. This does not automatically
mean, that they were lost or destroyed. If the loss and the reason is known this information
is provided behind the last known place of type depository. The type specimens of taxa
described by Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775 for instance, were kept last at NHM, Wien but
were destroyed by fire during the 1848 revolution.
The way of designation of a Holotype is explained (by monotypy or by original
designation). A Holotype by monotypy means that a single specimen only was used for the
description of a species group taxon.
William Schaus did not usually mention the number of types when he described new taxa,
and sometimes not even the gender. The holdings of USNM, Washington, which contains
the majority of Schaus’ type material separated a part of this material in their own type-
collection and these specimens bear a red coloured label with a “type-number”, which is
also mentioned in many descriptions of Schaus from 1920 as “Cat. No.”. These are not
Holotype designations. I was unable to verify how many specimens the type series of Schaus
really contained in every case and treated the type(s) principially as “unspecified number”
of Syntypes. In reality it is to be expected that some of them are based on single specimens
only (Holotype by monotypy).
For Lectotypes or Neotypes the formally act of designation is provided with reference.
Unavailable names, subjective and objective synonyms, homonyms are printed smaller (8
point). In the case of homonyms also the senior homonym name was checked. If a (valid)
replacement name was already proposed, this name is printed in normal size, followed
by the homonym in smaller letters. In homonyms on specific level the type locality, status
of the type specimen(s) including their gender followed then in normal size, because this
information is valid and is transferred from the replaced taxon. The synonyms are listed in
chronologically order with the original combination and spelling.
Taxa described nomenclaturally valid as subspecies are not treated automatically as junior
synonyms unless they were brought in subjective synonymy by later published works.

Family transfers
The genus Crambometra does not belong to the Notodontidae. Originally established by
Prout, 1915 in the Geometridae, it was placed in the Notodontidae by Janse, 1920: 218.
Janse described in the same paper also his genus Campolyctys in the family Notodontidae.
Kiriakoff, 1970 synonymized Camptolyctis with Crambometra and added 1981 vandenbergae
as the third species in genus (in the family Notodontidae). Examination of the imagines of
the three species including their male genitalia made evident, that they are congeneric and
belong to the Family Geometridae, Subfamily Ennominae.

Burnuparia nigropulverata is replaced by Crambometra derelicta. No diagnosis or type species designation
of nigropulverata is provided. Janse intended not to describe nigropulverata as a new species, when he
became aware that it was already described by Prout and corrected this in his manuscript. But probably
he forgot the corrections in the legend for the plates. The founding locality were taken from the label of the
specimen marked as ”Burnuparia nigropulverata Janse P type.”

Amaricampa Thiaucourt, 2006: 43.

Type species: Malocampa ecpantherioides Schaus, 1904 by original designation.
Remarks: Piñas, 2004: 2 mentioned on several „géneros nuevos“, including
Amaricampa but neither a diagnosis nor a fixation of a type species was given. He
listed on p. 15 [Malocampa] muscipilosa Dognin, [1916] as the only species in
Amaricampa. In a further publication (Piñas, 2005: 520) he fixed a type species
(Malocampa ecpantherioides Schaus, 1904) but again without a diagnosis.
Amaricampa Piñas, 2004 is therefore a nomen nudum and for nomenclatural
purposes unavailable. Thiaucourt, 2006 reviewed Amaricampa, provided a diagnosis
for Amaricampa, mentioned on the type species and placed some further species
in this genus. The diagnosis of Thiaucourt fullfills the rules of the Code and
Thiaucourt is therefore the author of Amaricampa.

Remarks: Palessa was placed by Schintlmeister, 2008: 68 as a subjective synonym of Curuzza
Kiriakoff, 1962 and Odnarda. Because of the fixation of a new type species for Curuzza by Kobayashi
and Kishida 2008: 237 Odnarda Kiriakoff, 1962 „replaced“ the former Curuzza-genus group name. Thus
Palessa becomes now a synonym of the subgenus Odnarda alone.

HT: O, [Indonesia], Java [„Ost-Java, Malang“] – *ZMHU, Berlin by monotypy.
Remarks: Pygaera apicalis Pagenstecher, 1894 is junior secondary homonym of Ichthyura apicalis
Walker, 1855: 1058 (both are currently combined in Clostera) and also a junior synonym of Ichthyura
angularis Snellen, 1895. Pagenstecher, 1894: 33 mentioned on „Pygaera Apicalis Snellen in literis“, not
accompanied by a description or an illustration and therfore nomenclaturally unavailable (nomen nudum).
Snellen, however never described Pygaera apicalis but Ichthyura angularis which is the same species
as Pagenstecher mentioned. Gaede, 1930: 647 also mentioned on „apicalis Sn. in l.“ and give a valid
description. However he wrongly attributed the fig. 80: f to his apicalis. This figure illustrates Neodrymonia
apicalis Moore, 1879. The type specimen of Gaede‘s apicalis in ZMHU, Berlin bear a species-label in
Pagenstecher‘s hand and is conspecific with Clostera angularis (syn. nov.). Later when Gaede become
aware about the homonymy of apicalis with Walkers apicalis, he (Gaede 1934: 303) replaced apicalis for
apicialis.

Xenoclostera argyrocraspeda which is a synonym of restitura (according to the
current species concept of restitura). To stabilize the nomenclature I designate hereby
the holotype of Xenoclostera argyrocraspeda as the Neotype of Ichthyura restitura

Remarks: In the holdings of the ZMHU, Berlin there is apart from the O, also a P,
from „Deutsch-Ost-Africa, Lindi“, which is labelled (in Gaedes hand) as „Desmeocraer.
Sagittata” and the typical rectangular red “Type” label. Both specimens are not
conspecific, and the P even not congeneric with Desmeocraera but belongs to
Desmaeocraerula. To stabilize the nomenclatur I designate hereby as Lectotype the O
(which is illustrated in the original description of Gaede on pl. 69: e) bearing the
following labels: blue label„Uamgebiet|Bosum 1.-10.5.|14 Tessmann S.“; rectangular
red label „Type“; „Desmeocraera|sagittata| det. M. Gaede“ (in Gaede’s hand); yellow

Remarks: Miller, 2009: 520 was unable to trace a type specimen at BMNH. Kirby,

Prout, 1918: 416 placed melda as a questionable senior synonym (“= ?”) of restricta
and noted, that the type locality given by Boisduval is very probably wrong. Miller,
2009: 520 treats melda and restricta as conspecific but retains melda as a (senior)
synonym.

placed it in Notodonta, a shurely wrong decision. Unfortunately only a O is known
and the genitalia slide BM #119 is of poore quality. The holotype has externally
most resemblance to Disparia or Mesophalera species and is placed provisionally
therefore in Disparia (comb. nov.).

Remarks: The original description mentions on a moth with whitish forewings, which
was subsequentely cited and illustrated by Esper, 1783: 242; pl. 46: 1, 2, 3. De
Freina & Witt, 1983: 8 suggests, that both taxa, dodonaea and trimacula, are from
the same type-locality and brought them therefore in synonymy. But trimacula comes
from an other collection and its origin is very probably not Vienna.

diagnosis (nomen nudum). A type-specimen from California is in USNM, Washington. Dyar, 1892 provided
a full description and made the name paradoxa nomenclaturally available.
Cerura paradoxa var. placida Dyar, 1892: 291 (infrasubspecific).
ST: “2 or 3” OO, California, Nevada Co. – *USNM, Washington.
Remarks: The species was described as an individual form of “Cerura paradoxa Behr” and from the type
series of paradoxa (with same type locality). Contrary to the original description (“occurring only in two or
three females out of the large number of specimens in Dr. Behr’s collection.”) in USNM there is a P,
labelled as “type” (in Dyar’s hand).

the characteristic red and rectangular label „Type“ and the handwritten species name
(in Gaede‘s hand) comes however from Java and no further specimens from
Myanmar or W Malaysia were traced by me in ZMHU, Berlin (wrong type locality).
The illustration in Gaede, 1930 on pl. 81: d matches well to this specimen. Thus the P
from Java must be the designated holotype (see also Schintlmeister & Lourens,

Phalaena Noctua crenata Hufnagel, 1766: 402 and proposed Bombyx rurea Fabricius, 1787 as a
replacement name for crenata Esper, 1785. The Code, however says: „59.2. Secondary homonyms not
replaced when no longer considered congeneric. If in a case of secondary homonymy the junior species-
group name has not been replaced [Art. 60], and the relevant taxa are no longer considered congeneric,
the junior name is not to be rejected, even if one species-group name was originally proposed in the
current genus of the other.“ and „ 59.4. Reinstatement of junior secondary homonyms rejected after 1960.
A species-group name rejected after 1960 on grounds of secondary homonymy is to be reinstated as valid
by an author who considers that the two species-group taxa in question are not congeneric, unless it is

there are neither significant differences in the forewings markings (as mentioned by Pan, Li & Han) nor in
the male genitalia and fangi sinks therefore as a junior synonym of argentata (syn. nov.).

Remarks: Walker described this species twice and in different genera in the same publication. Both types
comes from the coll. Birchhall and have the same type locality. Salamboria deornata becomes also a
secondary homonym by placing both in Hemiceras by Schaus, 1901: 334. As the first revising author he
gave the O (Epicoria deornata) precedence over the P name bearing type of Salamboria deornata, which
is placed here in synonymy (syn. nov.).

Sehestedt & Tønder Lund collection, which contains many types of species described
by Fabricius, labelled as coming from Central America, and identified as Bombyx
jesuita by Fabricius. It fits the original description and might be the type specimen. .
Bombyx jesuita was placed as a synonym of Josia aurimutua Walker, 1854 by Prout,
1918: 423 but jesuita is the older name and requires priority.

Remarks: The Neotype was designated by Miller, 2009: 774, as the types of Hübner are lost (burned 1848
in Vienna). It is a syntype of Josia aurimutata Walker, 1854. Hübner, 1822 described Josia fulvia originally
according a O, from Brazil. Josia fulvia Hübner, 1822 is not praeoccupied by Phalaena Noctua fulvia

Remarks: Prout, 1918: 423 placed Bombyx jesuita Fabricius, 1775 as a questionable (“?=”) synonym of
aurimutua, which was followed by all subsequent authors. In fact Fabricius names requires priority as both
taxa are conspecific (Miler, 2009: 774). Josia aurimutua is by designation of the holotype of aurimutua as
the Neotype of fulvia an objective synonym of fulvia.

Type species: Graphidurina auriplaga Kiriakoff, 1964 by original designation.
Remark: The only existing P (HT), described from SE China lacks the abdomen but the wingshape and
the distinctive markings on the forewings matching very well with Marthula multifascia (Walker, 1856).
Kiriakoff described the genus obvisously according to a mislabelled specimen from America. Graphidurina
is therefore placed in synonymy (syn. nov.).

Remarks: The species was described from China, basing on a single mislabelled specimen without
abdomen. The HT of auriplaga match by external appearance very well to Marthula multifascia, a
distinctive and common species occuring exclusively in S America. Graphidurina auriplaga is therefore
placed here as a in synonymy to Marthula multifascia (syn. nov.).

Remark: Piñas, 2004: 2 mentioned on several „géneros nuevos“, including Megarisoides but neither a
diagnosis nor a fixation of a type species was given. He listed on p. 15 Megarisoides verdosa Piñas as the
only species in Megarisoides. In a further publication (Piñas, 2005: 520) he fixed a type species
(Megarisoides verdosa Piñas, 2004) but again without a diagnosis. Megarisoides Piñas, 2004 is therefore
a nomen nudum and for nomenclatural purposes unavailable. Also Megarisoides verdosa Piñas, 2004: 3
(from Ecuador) was not accompanied wether by a diagnosis (only by an photograph of the imago, fig. 422
on a separate CD) nor by a Holotype fixation and is therefore also a nomen nudum.

Type species: Stauropus acasia Schaus, 1928 by original designation.
Remarks: Placed here in synonymy to Nyssiopsis because of similarities in the male genitalia of mystacina
and acasia (syn. nov.)
Resto Schintlmeister, 1997: 34, syn. nov.
Type species: Resto publica Schintlmeister, 2001
Remarks: Stauropus acasia is a senior synonym of Resto cautio (see below). It is the type species of
Acasina. The type species of Resto publica is congeneric with mystacina because of similarities in
external appearance and genitalia morphology. Resto is therefore placed here as a junior subjective
synonym of Nyssiopsis (syn. nov.).

matches very well to those of publica, but the external appearance of both taxa is
different. The holotype of mystacina (http://www2.nrm.se/en/lep_nrm/m/nyssiopsis_

A published image of the HT O genitalia, RM prep 6723 (http://www2.nrm.se/en/lep_nrm/s/phalera_
sanganabirmicola.html) shows, that birmicola is not conspecific with grotei. The broadwinged imago, the
bilobed base of the ostium and large subbasal invaginations of the bursa copulatrix of the female genitalia
are characteristic for a species known hithertho under the name Phalera sundana Holloway, 1982 (compare
also Schintlmeister & Lourens, 2010: 117). The latter must sink therefore as a junior synonym of birmicola

In fact acyptera and nigrofasciata are two very distinct species, which are even not
congeneric and insido is therefore combined with acyptera, which is restored from
synonymy.

Oglana Kiriakoff, 1968: 109 syn. nov.
Type species: Pydna discoidalis Gaede, 1930.
Remark: Kikiakoff examined the holotype of Pydna discoidalis including dissection of its male genitalia
(BM # 54), but illustrated and used in the description of Oglana in fig. 75 the genitalia of another
(seemingly undescribed) species, similar to discoidalis Gaede (case of a misidentified type species of a
genus). Pydna discoidalis is by external appearance very similar to Ceira notia Schintlmeister, 1997 but
resembles also much to Ceira metaphaea, the type species of Ceira. Oglana is therefore placed in
synonymy to Saliocleta (syn. nov.).

probably mounted later by Gaede, as Strand not used such printed labels. The description mentioned
only by sexualdimorphic differences. No type was designated and also no type locality was given. Very

Remarks: Bryk compares in his original description this taxon with „Hyperaeschra dentata“, which he also
mentioned from the type locality. H. nigribasis dentata is however restricted to S India and Sri Lanka and
Bryk very probably compared his bhasini with H. n. nigribasis. I cannot find from his description differences
out of the range of individual variation of nigribasis and place therefore bhasini as a junior synonym of
nigribasis nigribasis (syn. nov.).

Remarks: The species was described from an unspecified number of PP, OO.
Two examined syntypes (PO) are conspecific. To stabilize the nomenclature I designate
here the P, as Lectotype bearing the following labels: "Mt. Kebea,|B.C. New Guinea.|

LT: P, [Papua New Guinea], British New Guinea, Mount Kebea, 6.000 ft.– *BMNH, London by present
designation.
Remarks: The taxon was described from an unspecified number of PP, OO. Two examined syntypes
(PO) are conspecific with Syntypistis kebeae. They are representing individual foms: the P, like f.
rufotegula (see below) and the O, like f. leucocraspedus (see below) but a bit less contrasting. To stabilize
the nomenclature I designate here the P, as Lectotype bearing the following labels: „Mt. Kebea,|B.C. New
Guinea.|6,000 ft. | March-April 1903. | A. E. Pratt. Coll.“; bluish-green circular label „Type“; blue label
"Notodontidae genitalia slide No. 1460 P"; yellow label "Photo done by A. Schintlmeister #4382". The
examined female from "Babooni, B. New Guinea, 3.000 ft., Juli-September, 1903" also bearing a bluish
green label "Type" and photo number #4383 becomes a Paralectotype. The Lectotype comes from the
same type locality as the Lectotype of S. kebeae.

Desmaeocraera rufotegula Gaede, 1930: 629 syn. nov.
HT: P, [Indonesia, West Papua], Neu-Guinea [Nomnagihé, 25 miles south of Wangaar, 2.000 ft.] –
Remarks: As the examination of the HT shows, this is an aberrant individual form of S. kebeae, where
the white markings in the median area are absent and the postmedian area is brownish filled. A junior
synonym of kebeae (syn. nov.).
Quadricalcarifera nitidula (Kiriakoff, 1967): 199; fig. 7 syn. nov.
HT: P, [Indonesia, W Papua. Jayawijaya Mts.], New Guinea, Araucaria Camp, [3°30'S, 139°.11’ E, 800-
850 m] – *Netherlands Centre for Biodiversity Naturalis, Leiden by original designation.
Remarks: The HT of nitidula is concpecific with S. kebeae Bethune-Baker, 1904 and represent an
individual form similar to f. triplagosus Rothschild, 1917 but with less contrasting markings on the
forewings. The illustrated male genitalia (fig. 7) differ somewhat in the shape of the apex of the valves
from kebeae. However it is not clear which genitalia slide Kiriakoff used for this figure, as the original
genitalia slide is missing in BMNH, London. The other members of the type series of nitidula belong
seemingly to a different species. I place here nitidula in synonymy to kebeae because of similarities of the
external appearance (syn. nov.).

kebeae chloropasta Turner, 1907: 679 (Syntypistis chloropasta) stat. nov.
HT: P, Australia, N. Q[ueensland], Kuranda – *Australian National Insect Collection,
Remarks: Comparison of a series from Queensland, including Kuranda (I did not
examined the HT of chloropasta) and a good series (n> 50) from New Guinea
made evident, that both taxa are conspecific, each which a wider range of individual
variation. However the male genitalia display slighter differences in the sclerotizations
of the 8th sternite and the shape of the uncus. So chloropasta is placed here as a
subspecies of kebeae (stat. nov.).
Syntypistis opaca Turner, 1922: 379 syn. nov.
ST: 1 P, 1 O, Australia, N. Q[ueens]land, Kuranda near Cairns – *Australian National Insect Collection,
Canberra.
Remarks: The photograph (http://www1.ala.org.au/gallery2/v/Notodontidae/Notodontinae/Syntypistis
opaca/) of the syntype female of opaca shows, that it is representing an individual form of Syntypistis
kebeae as it occurs also in New Guinea. I place therefore opaca as an infrasubspecific form of Syntypistis
kebeae chloropasta Turner, 1907 (syn. nov.).

HT: P, [Indonesia, Maluku, Seram], Central Ceram, Manusela, 6.000 ft. – *BMNH,
Remarks: The external appearance of the type series of ceramensis resembles the
syntypes of S. kebeae. The male genitalia show however minor differences in the
shapes and sclerotizations of the 8th sternite. Quadricalcarifera ceramensis is placed
therefore here as a subspecies of kebeae (stat. nov.).
kebeae eichhorni (Kiriakoff, 1970): 111; fig. 15 (Quadricalcarifera eichhorni) stat. nov.
HT: P, [Papua New Guinea], New Ireland – *BMNH, London by original designation.
Remarks: The male genitalia as illustrated by Kiriakoff, 1970, fig. 15 do not differ
virtually from those of S. k. kebeae but the unique existing type specimen differ by
external appearance from other known individual forms. Because of the rather
isolated occurence I keep it here provisionally as a subspecies of kebeae (stat. nov.).

Remarks: Described as a form of trisospylus Joicey & Talbot (= S. kebeae Bethune-
Baker, 1904). Raised to specific status by Kiriakoff, 1967: 10. There are two
syntypes in BMNH, London, which are not conspecific and also not conspecific with
trisopylus. To stabilize the nomenclature I designate here a Lectotype bearing the
following labels: P, red rectangular label "TYPE"; "Ninay Valley | Central Arfak Mts.
