Notes

Eleven species and two subspecies were described ( Lévêque and Viidalepp 2015, Lindt and Viidalepp 2015, Lindt et al. 2018). Lindt et al. (2018) designated Oospila agnetaforslundae as a replacement name for Oospila marginata (Schaus, 1912), which had previously been erroneously synonymised with Oospila permagna (Warren, 1909) by Cook and Scoble (1995). The replacement name was necessary because O. marginata (Schaus, 1912) is a junior secondary homonym of O. marginata Warren, 1897. Lindt et al. (2018) also raised O. imula from synonymy with O. miccularia Guenée, [1858] and raised O. similiplaga from synonymy with O. arpata (Schaus, 1897).
