Genus Oresbius Marshall, 1867 View in CoL View at ENA
Oresbius Marshall, 1867: 193 View in CoL . Type species: Oresbius castaneus Marshall, 1867 View in CoL . Monotypic. Opidnus Förster, 1869: 185 . Type species: Aptesis tsugae
Cushman, 1939. Designated by Townes & Townes (1951).
A single species, O. leucopsis ( Gravenhorst, 1829) , has been recorded from Japan. The generic position of Aptesis opaca ( Cushman, 1937) is clearly accorded with this genus. Thus, I change the generic position of this species from Aptesis to this genus (comb. nov.). The specific name “ opaca , - um, - us ” is preoccupied by O. opacus Taschenberg, 1865 . Thus, I propose a new replaced name for this species.
