- español
Casandria Walker, 1857, es transferida de los Nolidae (Collomeninae) hacia los Erebidae (Catocalinae), como el sinónimo senior de Acathodica Schaus, 1894.

Las species siguientes, anteriormente asociadas con Casandria transferidas hacia Motya Walker, 1859: M. araea (Schaus, 1911) (Casandria), comb. n., M. flotsama (Dyar, 1914) (Casandria), comb. n., M.insignis (Dognin, 1914) (Casandria), comb. n., M. steniptera (Schaus, 1911) (Casandria), comb. n.
Se presenta una tabla de todos los taxones anteriormente asociados con Casandria y Acanthodica y son también presentados en un “Resumen nomenclatural” e ilustraciones de los tipos de C. emittens Walker, 1857 y de A. grandis Schaus, 1894, así como en vivo de C. splendens (Druce, 1889).

The following species, formerly associated to Casandria are here in transferred to Motya Walker, 1859: M. araea(Schaus, 1911) (Casandria), comb. n., M. flotsama (Dyar, 1914) (Casandria), comb. n., M. insignis (Dognin, 1914) (Casandria), comb. n., M. steniptera (Schaus, 1911) (Casandria), comb. n.
A table of all taxa formerly associated with both Casandria and Acanthodica are presented in the “Nommenclature summary”, and illustrations of both the types of C. emittens Walker, 1857 and of A. grandis Schaus, 1894, as well of a live C. splendens (Druce, 1889), are also presented.
