Funny that you should mention the IRMNG, as it just came to my attention 
that a genus appearing there (Aellopos Muenster, 1836) is apparently 
listed as valid, despite being a junior homonym of Aellopos Huebner, 1819.

Would anyone here know more details, such as whether this name has been 
replaced already? If so, I'd be grateful.

Peace,
