Claterna exagens Walker, 1858
= Trigonia Guenée, in Boisduval & Guenée, 1854: 11 (TS: Phalaena cydonia Cramer, [1775] 1779: 34). Trigonia Guenée is a junior homonym of Trigonia Bruguiere, [1789] 1792: xiv (Mollusca). There is no objective replacement name but P. cydonia is conspecific with Claterna exagens Walker, 1858, the type species of Claterna Walker, 1858. The latter is thus available for use as a subjective replacement name (Nye 1975).
