Eugnathia lunifera or Lophoruza lunifera. Both names are active in iNat. They have to be merged to either.

. . . all of our combinations under genus A in source list; same for combinations under genus B.

Ready for swap, then.
BTW: Observations affected in 3-5 pairs of names, extra thx for attention!

Not valid.
Holloway revived Eugnathia in Moths of Borneo part 13, and see updated list in part 12

This swap is in need of reversing, please. Please see Moths of Borneo part 13, page 112, wherein Holloway specifically explains that many species previously associated with Lophoruza were transferred to the revived Eugnathia. Unfortunately, the online version of this part of MoB is seiously messed.
The updated checklist from 2012 lists all the Eugnathia spp found in Borneo - https://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-2/family-erebidae.php:

Eugnathia lunifera is the correct combination, yet it remains inactive on the iNat database. Please restore this binomial

Was done already => https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/1518974-Eugnathia-lunifera
["backswapping" does not work, only forth into a fresh iNat "taxon"]
