Type material
The type material of Crochiphora flavistriaria is lost, but the illustrations (Hübner, 1831, pl. [96], figs 555, 556) are diagnostic and represent the form shown in Fig. 1. The type specimens of Poaphila herbicola and Poaphila contempta are lost, but the original descriptions are diagnostic and represent the forms shown in Figs 2 and 3 respectively. The female lectotype of Poaphila perplexa in the MNHN labelled “Javana [Savannah] Georgia/ perplexa/ Type/ Museum Paris/ Poaphila perplexa Gn. Vol. 7, 1852, p. 302, n=1755” is shown in Fig. 11. The male holotype of Poaphila perspicua in the BMNH labelled “Type/ Argyrostrotis perspicua.” is shown in Fig. 12 and represents the same form as the original illustration of Crochiphora flavistriaria. The male holotype of Mocis? diffundens in the BMNH labelled “Type/ 8. Mocis? diffundens.” is shown in Fig. 13. A male syntype of Phurys glans in the BMNH labelled “Type/ Grote Coll. 82-54./ 3129/ Phurys glans Grote type” is shown in Fig. 14. The male lectotype of Phurys carolina in the AMNH labelled “Phurys carolina Smith % type/ Nth Car., August”/ Coll. J.B. Smith/ Lectotype by E.L. Todd” is shown in Fig. 15.
