Name

Spartophila Chevrolat in Dejean, 1836: 403

Type species: Chrysomela litura Fabricius, 1775 [= Chrysomela olivacea Forster, 1771], by subsequent designation by Chevrolat, 1843: 656.

Note: "The first typification for Spartophila is that of Hope (1840: 163) who selected Chrysomela spartii Olivier, 1807 (= Chrysomela variabilis Olivier, 1790). This species is currently included in the subgenus Spartoxena Motschulsky, 1860 (fide Kippenberg 2010: 437) and its acceptance as type species of Spartophila will bring nomenclatural changes. A request to the Commission is needed to suppress the typification of Hope (1840)". (Bousquet & Bouchard, 2013)
