Remarks

Although Nixon attributed the name to Kieffer, there is no species of that name described by Kieffer and Nixon (1980) must be considered the author, the description provided in the key being sufficient to make the name available (Notton 1995). The lectotype is mounted on a card point, has the right fore wing folded and the left hind tarsus broken off and stuck to the right fore wing.
