Syntomoides is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae erected by George Hampson in 1893.[1]
The genus is often confused with Ceryx, because in 1898 Hampson used the name Ceryx for this moth, but there was already a genus Ceryx named by Hans Daniel Johan Wallengren in 1863.[2]
Species
This is now considered a monotypic genus with the species Syntomoides imaon (Cramer, [1779]): Syntomis godartii (Boisduval, 1829) is one of several synonyms.[3]
