This genus was previously placed as a synonym of the Neotropical genus Piesmopoda, which I discussed with Franziska Bauer a few years ago - we both concluded the two genera were not related by comparing illustrations of genitalia in publications of the phycitines from Sumatra and Belize. G. Leraut also agrees with this opinion.

Identification
ID 2 of taxon E will be an unintended disagreement with ID 1 of taxon B after the taxon swap
If thinning a parent results in more than 10 unintended disagreements, you
should split the parent after swapping the child to replace existing IDs
of the parent (B) with IDs that don't disagree.
