Q: What about the status, affinity, scope or nomenclature of this taxon is disputed?

A: (From Wikipedia) Hemihyalea is a disputed genus of arctiine tussock moths (tribe Phaegopterini of the family Arctiidae). The type species, Hemihyalea cornea, has been proposed for inclusion in Amastus, and other species have consequently been moved to the re-established Pseudohemihyalea. It is unclear at present whether Hemihyalea is a valid genus at all, and if so, what species other than H. cornea it would contain.
