Notes

The AfroMoths database ( De Prins and De Prins 2019) states, without a citation, that Acidaliastis porphyretica was transferred to the genus Acidromodes Hausmann, 1996 and that Acidaliastis subbrunnescens was transferred to Hemidromodes Prout, 1916. After searching the literature, these names were found on other online species lists, but there did not appear to be any formal publications that proposed these new combinations. Thus, Acidaliastis porphyretica and Acidaliastis subbrunnescens are currently considered the valid names for these species.
