Synonyms

• Cosmosoma drucei Kirby, 1892 (Original combination) (replacement name for Cosmosoma elegans Druce, 1884, primary homonym of Cosmosoma elegans Butler, 1876)

• Pheia elegans; Hampson, 1898:203 [3]
  • Note: Hampson (1898) revalidates the species name elegans by transfering to the genus Pheia. Cerda (2008) rejected the validity of this revalidation by Hampson, and transfers the species to genus Xanthyda.
