flavescens Walker, 1855 (Monema) - MONA 1983: 4672
Type locality: China. |
| Taxonomic Notes: |
Monema flavescens Walker, 1855, formerly in the genus Cnidocampa, is returned to the genus Monema. The genus Cnidocampa was unnecessarily proposed as an objective replacement name for Monema Walker, 1855, which is not preoccupied by Monema Greville, 1827, a genus of plants, Fletcher & Nye (1982: 104). |
