Synonyms
Junior synonym
In taxonomy, the scientific classification of living organisms, a synonym is an alternative scientific name for the accepted scientific name of a taxon. The botanical and zoological codes of nomenclature treat the concept of synonymy differently.

Zaguljaev, 1963
* "Brosis"
Hübner, 1806 (suppressed name)
* ''
Brosis''
Hübner, 1822 (''non'' Billberg, 1820: preoccupied)

Hübner, 825/small>

The genus name ''Brosis'' was first proposed by J. Hübner in 1806, but in a book – the famous ''Tentamen determinsationis'' ("Preliminary examination") – that was essentially an immense discussion paper and not a valid work of zoological nomenclature
The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) is a widely accepted convention in zoology that rules the formal scientific naming of organisms treated as animals. It is also informally known as the ICZN Code, for its formal author, t ...
. When Hübner came to validly erect the genus in his 1822 genus list (''Systematisch-alphabetisches Verzeichnis''), it had already been used by G.J. Billberg for what is nowadays considered the Incurvariidae genus '' Incurvaria''.[Pitkin & Jenkins (2004ab)]
