Xanthodisca Aurivillius, 1925 View in CoL is a junior subjective synonym of Semalea Holland, 1896
Genomic trees reveal that Semalea Holland, 1896 ( type species Hesperia pulvina Plötz, 1879 ) in paraphyletic with respect to Xanthodisca Aurivillius, 1925 ( type species Astictopterus vibius Hewitson, 1878 ) ( Figs. 45, 46). Restoring monophyly, we propose that Xanthodisca Aurivillius, 1925 , syn. nov. is a junior subjective synonym of Semalea Holland, 1896 due to genetic similarity.
