This genus has traditionally been used for many of the species placed in Agamana Walker, [1866] and Xenogenes Meyrick, 1910 in this Checklist. The type-species of Fodina Guenée, F. oriolus Guenée, 1852, is from India [‘Bengal’] and has not been examined. F. ostorius (Donovan, 1805) is retained in Fodina since it does not belong in the other two genera)
