Hi,
I'm getting confused with conflicting information
Originally, Holloway, 1985 (Moths of Borneo 14 p. 302) reads
Trisuloides catocalina Moore, 1883, Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1883: 17
However, then come
Behounek, Han & Kononenko, 2011
A revision of the genus Trisuloides Butler, 1881 with
descriptions of three new species from China (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae).
Revision of Pantheinae, contribution I
Zootaxa 3069 : 1-25
where they on p. 4 restore "Trisuloides catocalina Moore, 1883" back to
Trisuloides, making Antitrisuloides a syn. of Trisuloides.
and in
Behounek & Kononenko, 2011
A review of the genera Elydnodes Hampson, 1913 and Antitrisuloides
Holloway, 1985 with description of two new species (Lepidoptera,
Noctuidae). Revision of Pantheinae, contribution III
Zootaxa 3108 : 41-52
where they on p. 45 claim the type of Antitrisuloides to be
Tambana catocalina Moore, 1882, Descriptions of new Indian
Lepidopterous Insects from the Collection of the Late Mr. W.S.
Atkinson: 156
So, which is it, and if not "Trisuloides catocalina Moore, 1883", then
why it is not?
