Taxonomic remark Not Asterolepis Eichwald, 1840 (original spelling Astrolepis) in family Asterolepididae , a genus of fossil fishes. If the modified spelling for the fish genus ("in current use" per Van der Laan, 2018) is accepted as correct, the lepidopteran genus name Asterolepis Razowski, 1964 becomes a junior homonym and would have to be replaced.
