122. Hypertrocta posticalis View in CoL (Walker, [1866] 1865): 1200 ( Moscha )

TL: Hindostan

= Hypertrocta marmorata Hampson, 1893: 32 View in CoL (TL: Ceylon, Nawala-pittia)

Distribution: India (South India, Kerala), Sri Lanka, Borneo, Malaysia.

Genus Hyposada Hampson, 1910 [August]: 412

TS: Phibalapteryx hydrocampata Guenée , in Boisduval & Guenée, 1857: 438, by monotypy.

= Hyposada Hampson, 1910 View in CoL [December]: xi, 273 (TS: Lycauges postvittata Moore, 1887: 456 ). Hyposada Hampson, 1910 View in CoL [December] is a junior homonym of Hyposada Hampson, 1910 View in CoL [August]. The latter was used and unintentionally made available by Hampson in August, prior to its proposal and generic description by Hampson in December for the same concept, but having a different type species. There is no objective replacement name but L. postvittata is congeneric with P. hydrocampata Guenée, 1857 , the type species of Hyposada Hampson, 1910 View in CoL [August]. The latter is therefore available for use as a subjective replacement name ( Nye 1975).
