Gender, form, and etymology
Etymology:
The origin of the genus name was not stated in Walker (1858), and the derivation of the genus name is not evident and can only be speculated upon. We treat Buca as derived as an arbitrary combination of letters of feminine gender (Gnezdilov, Bartlett, & Bourgoin, 2016a).
