 Comments
       
  Comment: '[T]he widely used subfamily name Macroglossinae is preoccupied as it designates sphingid lepidopterans of subfamily Macroglossinae Harris, 1839, tribe Macroglossini Harris, 1839, and subtribe Macroglossina Harris, 1839, referred to genus Macroglossum Scopoli, 1777' (Almeida et al., 2020)
