 Comments
       
  Comment: Authorship for a family-group name (from superfamily to subtribe) based on the genus Chlosyne Butler 1870 is not clear from available sources, but Long et al. (2014) clearly treat it as a valid subtribe named Chlosynina, containing the genera Chlosyne, Dymasia, Microtia, Poladryas, and Texola
