Same author transferred the same species to Callopepla some years before: https://archive.org/details/catalogueoflepid01brituoft/page/438/mode/1up?view=theater. They are synonyms, even funet.fi don't realized of that: https://ftp.funet.fi/pub/sci/bio/life/insecta/lepidoptera/ditrysia/noctuoidea/arctiidae/ctenuchinae/callopepla/ ; https://ftp.funet.fi/pub/sci/bio/life/insecta/lepidoptera/ditrysia/noctuoidea/arctiidae/ctenuchinae/cyanopepla/
Hard to say what is valid, the first or later on? Looks like Hampson just forgot that genus change.
