Lepidoptera: Noctuoidea

Family

Noctuidae

Subfamily

Noctuinae

Tribe/Subtribe

Genus

Anarta Ochsenheimer, 1816

Type Species

Phalaena myrtilli Linnaeus, 1761

= Charelia Sodoffsky, 1837: 88 (Proposed, unnecessarily, as an objective replacement name for Anarta Ochsenheimer, 1816)
= Trichoclea Grote, 1883: 30 (TS: Trichoclea decepta Grote, 1883: 30)
= Discestra Hampson, 1905: 14 (TS: Mamestra chartaria Grote, 1873: 138)
= Trifcestra Beck, 2000
= Dianthcestra Beck, 2000

Subgenus

Calocestra Beck, [1992] 1991

Type Species

Noctua pugnax Hübner, [1824]

= Salacia Boie, in Freyer, 1839: 391 (TS: Mamestra sodae Boisduval, 1829: 5). Salacia Boie is a junior homonym of Salacia Lamouroux, 1816: 212 (Coelenterata). There is no objective replacement name but M. sodae is congeneric with Mamestra chartaria Grote, 1873, the type species of Discestra Hampson, 1905. The latter is therefore available for use as the subjective replacement name.
= Melanarta Beck, [1992] 1991: 189 (TS: Noctua melanopa Thunberg, 1791: 42)
