Nomenclature Nolan and Cribb based the final part of this generic name on the Greek masculine noun 'mitos' (thread), which they appear to have erroneously Latinised in the feminine form as 'mita'. This situation appears to be covered by ICZN Article 30.1.4.5, i.e. A genus-group name that is or ends in a Latin word of which the ending has been changed takes the gender appropriate to the new ending. Hence, we accept, what appears to have been the original authors' intentions, and consider the gender of Phthinomita as feminine. DIG. [details]
