 However, Brignoli overlooked that in 1879, Oberthür had already named a genus of Satyrini thus.Possibly, Brignioli believed the mollusk genus to be a "nomen dubium"; it is certainly weakly defined (Carter 1971 "fide" Sánchez 1999) but it is still generally accepted as valid.In any case, the lepidopteran genus is well-defined and valid.
