Synonyms
Junior synonyms of Nemapogon are:
 * Anemapogon Zaguljaev, 1963
 * "Brosis" Hübner, 1806 (suppressed name)
 * Brosis Hübner, 1822 (non Billberg, 1820: preoccupied)
 * Diaphthirusa Hübner, [1825]
 * Longiductus Zaguljaev, 1964
 * Nematopogon Agassiz, 1847 (unjustified emendation; non Zeller, 1839: preoccupied)
 * Paranemapogon Zaguljaev, 1964
 * Petalographis Zaguljaev, 1962

The genus name Brosis was first proposed by J. Hübner in 1806, but in a book – the famous Tentamen determinsationis ("Preliminary examination") – that was essentially an immense discussion paper and not a valid work of zoological nomenclature. When Hübner came to validly erect the genus in his 1822 genus list (Systematisch-alphabetisches Verzeichnis), it had already been used by G.J. Billberg for what is nowadays considered the Incurvariidae genus Incurvaria.
