Amathes Logotype Ph. Noclua baja Schiff. 
1822, Hubner, Verz. bek. Schmett. 222. Includes Utura L. and baja Schiff. 
1889, Butler, Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 382. Cites baja as type. 
1895, Grote, Ent. Rec. VI, 30. Confirms Butler’s citation. 
1906, Hampson, Cat. Lep. Phal. Brit. Mus. VI, 470. Pseudotype, Utura L. 
1916, McDunnough, Ent. News XXVII, 397. Cites Hampson’s action as ultra vires. 
Falls to Graphiphora Ochs. 
Ammoconia Logotype Ph. Noctua caedmacula Schiff. 
1857, Lederer, Noct. Europ. 97. Includes caecimacula Schiff. and vetula Bdv. ( = senex 
Cram.). 
1874, Grote, Bull. Buff. Soc. N. Sci. II, 12. Cites caecimacula as type. 
1903, Hampson, Cat. Lep. Phal. Brit. Mus. IV, 603. Cites same species. 
Ammogrotis Haplotype Ammogrotis stums Staud. 
1895, Staudinger, Iris, VIII, 358. 
Amphitrota Orthotype Mamestra unicolor Wlk. 
1909, Warren, in Seitz, Gross-Schmett. d. Erde, Palae. Noct. Ill, 57. 
Anicla Haplotype Agrotis infecta Ochs. 
1874, Grote, Bull. Buff. Soc. N. Sci. II, 159. Erected for alabamae Grt. which is a 
synonym of infecta Ochs. 
Anomogyna Haplotype Hadena laetabilis Zett. 
1871, Staudinger, Cat. Pal. Lep. 110. 
Aplectoides Orthotype Apleeta condita Gn. 
1878, Butler, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. (5) I, 193. 
Axylia Logotype Ph. Noctua putris Linn. 
1822, Hubner, Verz. bek. Schmett. 242. Includes exsoleta L., vetusta Hbn., and 
putris L. 
1852, Guenee, Sp. Gen. Lep. V, 134. Cites putris as type. 
1903, Hampson, Cat. Lep. Phal. Brit. Mus. VI, 280. Pseudotype, exoleta L. 
The genitalia of putris are distinctly non-Agrotine (vide Pierce, Gen. Brit. Noct. PI. 
IX) and most British entomologists place Axylia near Hydroecia in spite of the 
spined tibiae. 
Brotis Logotype Phalaena Noctua nigricans Linn. 
1822, Hubner, Verz. bek. Schmett. 226. Includes fumosa Schiff. and sordida Schiff. 
1903, Hampson, Cat. Lep. Phal. Brit. Mus. IV, 153. Cites as type nigricans L., of 
which fumosa Schiff. is a synonym. 
Falls to Euxoa. 
Caradrina Logotype Noctua margaritacea Vill. 
1816, Ochsenheimer, Schmett. Eur. IV, SO. Includes glareosa Esp. ( i-intactum Hbn., 
margaritacea Bork.), cubiculaHs Schiff., morpheus Hfn., alsines Brahm., respersa 
Schiff., and nine other species. 
1829, Duponchel, Hist. Nat. Lep. Fr. VII (2), 72. Cites i-intactum as type. 
1837, Curtis, Brit. Ent. XIV, 651. Pseudotype, morpheus Ochs. 
1840, Westwood, Intro. Mod. Class. Ins. Gen. Synop., 94. Pseudotype, cubicularis 
Schiff. 
1852, Guen6e, Sp. Gen. Lep. V, 244. Pseudotype, alsines Bork. 
1874, Grote, Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci. II, 22. Pseudotype, respersa Schiff. 
1894, Hampson, Moths Brit. Ind. II, 259. Pseudotype, taraxaci Hbn. 
1903, Hampson, Cat. Lep. Phal. Brit. Mus. IV, 360. Pseudotype, glpreosa Esp. 
1916, McDunnough, Ent. News XXVII, 397. Pseudotype, alsines Bork. 
In view of the fact that both the original reference and the synonymy of later authors 
show that glareosa of Ochsenheimer was the same as i-intactum of Hubner, but 
not the same species as glareosa Esp., Duponchel’s type designation will hold. 
The genus is apparently a good one and falls close to Rhyarna Hbn.
