Merger discussion

[edit]

The following 3 genera, Acanthobrahmaea, Brahmidia, and Brachygnatha have had their members merged into the larger genus of Brahmaea. Acanthobrahmaea has already been recognized as a subgenus but it does not warrant a separate page as it stands. The article the other two articles cite Two new species of Brahmaeidae from China, which cite the moths' similarities to species which were later reclassified into the genus Brahmaea. Brahmidia polymehntas was compared with Brahmidia hearseyi due to their similarities, the former of which was later moved to Brahmaea hearseyi. The genus Brachygnatha formerly described Brahmaea christophi, and the sole representative is likely in the same genus. With this family, there is very little information available, but to the best of my knowledge, we've overextended the little-known genus Brahmaea due to its numerous synonyms and other names the genus has been known as.

Kitching et al (2018) list these three taxa as synonyms of Brahmaea.
It would make sense for all Bombycoidea on Wikipedia to follow this globally authoritative publication.
