Erebidae

Rivulinae

Rivula Guenée, in Duponchel, [1845] 1844

Phalaena sericealis Scopoli, 1763

= Cholimma Walker, [1863] 1864: 60 (TS: Cholimma leucanioides Walker, [1863] 1864: 61)
= Motina Walker, 1863: 12 (TS: Motina aequalis Walker, 1863: 12)
= Plotheia Walker, 1863: 460 (TS: Plotheia innotabilis Walker, 1863: 461). Plotheia Walker, 1863 is a junior homonym of Plotheia Walker, [1858] (Noctuidae). The objective replacement name is Thopelia.
= Rhazunda Walker, 1866: 1961 (TS: Rhazunda distributa Walker, 1866: 1962)
= Pasira Moore, in Hewitson & Moore, 1882: 197 (TS: Pasira ochracea Moore, 1882: 197). Pasira Moore is a junior homonym of Pasira Stal, 1859: 190 (Hemiptera). There is no objective replacement name but P. ochracea is congeneric with Phalaena sericealis Scopoli, the type species of Rivula Guenée, [1845]. The latter is therefore available for use as a subjective replacement name (Nye 1975).
= Rivulana Bethune-Baker, 1911: 532 (TS: Rivulana ochrea Bethune-Baker, 1911: 533)
= Alikangiana Strand, 1920: 123 (TS: Alikangiana signicosta Strand, 1920: 123)
= Paurosceles Turner, 1945: 156 (TS: Paurosceles geminipuncta Turner, 1945: 156)
= Thopelia Nye, 1975: 480 (TS: Plotheia innotabilis Walker, 1863: 461)
