Sisyracera
genus of insects
Sisyracera is a genus of snout moths in the subfamily Spilomelinae of the family Crambidae. It was described in 1890 by Heinrich Benno Möschler with Leucinodes preciosalis as type species, now considered a synonym of Sisyracera subulalis. The genus has been placed in the tribe Udeini.
DNA barcode data for two species of Sisyracera are stored in the Barcode of Life Data System (BOLD), although only sequences for S. subulalis from specimens collected at the Area de Conservación Guanacaste in Costa Rica are publicly accessible.
“Sisyracera” enters the record as genus of insects. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Sisyracera, genus and insects can confirm, complicate or overturn.
Why this record matters
“Sisyracera” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Sisyracera, genus and insects provides the most credible route into that argument.
Stable identifiers, scientific names and standards terminology offer the best bridge between this overview and specialist evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q10819972. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1890.
Current terminology should not be projected backward without checking the classification used when the underlying evidence was created. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
How to read it
