Microloxia Warren, 1893
status

 

Microloxia Warren, 1893

Microloxia aistleitneri Hausmann, 2009 ("sp. nov.")

Microloxia chlorissoides (Prout, 1912) ("comb. nov.")

Microloxia herbaria ( Hübner, 1813)

Microloxia herbaria virideciliata (Bubacek, 1926) ("syn. nov.", followed by "stat. rev.")

Notes

One new species was described ( Hausmann 2009).

After synonymising Aoshakuna and Nipponogelasma , Beljaev (2007) transferred Nipponogelasma chlorissoides (Prout, 1913) to Microloxia .

Leraut (2009) synonymised Microloxia herbaria virideciliata with M. h. herbaria ( Hübner, 1813). Müller et al. (2019) cited molecular and morphological evidence to justify elevating M. h. virideciliata back to subspecies.
