7 months ago Hello! Currently the Lepidoptera (Insects) genus Magnificus is placed under Rosaceae (Plants). Unsure if it concerns two different taxons with the same name. It should be placed under Hepialidae.

(from helpdesk) The genus Magnificus Yang 2000 seems to be wrongly placed under plants instead of insects. The source for this genus is Plazi and listed in this checklist (treatment article).
