Comments.
Inclusion in this list means that the nomenclatural combination quoted by Curtis or Stephens could not be resolved via the Kloet and Hincks Check Lists (1945 and subsequent updates) and the other works to hand (see References). Numbers refer to the first edition of Curtis's British Entomology, while number-less names refer to J.F. Stephens’s Illustrations of British Entomology (1828–1846).
