Moureia

Moureia was erected as a moth genus by Ricardo N. Orfila and Nelida H. Rosisi in 1956. It is now considered by Butterflies and Moths of the World to be a synonym of Victrix Staudinger, 1879[1] and by Lepidoptera and Some Other Life Forms and The Global Lepidoptera Names Index to be a synonym of Bryophila Treitschke, 1825.[2][3]
