Siccia yvonneae Kühne, 2007 described as member of Lithosiini (Erebidae, Arctiinae) is transferred in the present paper to the genus Meganola Dyar, 1898 of Nolini (Nolidae, Nolinae): Meganola yvonneae (Kühne, 2007), comb. nov. Meganola yvonneae is compared to M. conspicua Dyar, 1898 type species of the genus, to M. albula ([Denis Schiffermüller], 1775) a widespread Palaearctic species and to Manoba lithosiformis László, Ronkay Ronkay, 2014 described from the Philippines as an example of a Nolinae reminding of the general habitus of Siccia from SE Asia. The adult and genitalia of the Lithosiini Siccia caffra Walker, 1854 are also figured for comparative purposes.
