Pemara Eliot, 1978 View in CoL is a junior subjective synonym of Oerane Elwes and Edwards, 1897

Two currently monotypic genera Pemara Eliot, 1978 (type and the only species Parnara pugnans de Nicéville, 1891 ) and Oerane Elwes and Edwards, 1897 (type species Notocrypta neaera de Nicéville, 1891 , currently a subspecies of Plesioneura microthyrus Mabille, 1883 ) are sisters, closer to each other than the two species of Suastus Moore, [1881] to each other ( Fig. 8 View Figure 8 ). COI barcodes of Pemara pugnans and Oerane microthyrus differ by 7.1% (47 bp). For these reasons, moving towards simpler classification, we unite the two monotypic genera into one and suggest that Pemara Eliot, 1978 is a junior subjective synonym of Oerane Elwes and Edwards, 1897 .
