-------------------------------
"Available, but without included species until Hampson, 1910, ibidem 9: xi, 273

The binomen Sesamia fusca originated from Hampson but was described and unintentionally made nomenclaturally available as Sesamia fusca Fuller, 1901, Natal Dep. Agric. First Rep. Govt Entomologist 1899-1900: 45, pl.11, prior to its proposal and description by Hampson for the same species.

S. fusca Hampson, 1902, is a junior primary homonym and also a junior subjective synonym of S. fusca Fuller, 1901; the latter should therefore be used as the subjective replacement name."
