Cyligramma limacina (1)
Taxonomic note:

Misidentified by various authors. Saalmüller (1981: 450) regarded it as a synonym of Cyligramma duplex Guenée, 1852. G. F. Hampson (1913: ) misidentified specimens of Cyligramma fluctuosa as limacina and erroneously included five names as synonyms of Cyligramma limacina. E. Berio (1965: ) correctly identified the several species in this group. See also B. Regnart et al. (2022: 53).

Distribution note:

Palaearctic: Egypt. The record of Côte d'Ivoire (Mabille 1890a: 44, as intellecta) refers to Cyligramma amblyops Mabille, 1891. Several other records refer to Cyligramma fluctuosa (Drury, 1773) (see B. Régnart et al. 2022: 53). Here, only the ten countries listed in B. Régnart et al. (2022: 54) are retained.
