Classification Bick & Bastrop (2025) move Monroika from Fabriciinae to Manayunkiinae [details]
Etymology Not stated but clearly named after Monro who described Monroika africana in Manayunkia. Feminine as Hartman does not adjust 'africana' to masculine (assuming africana was an adjective - it could be a noun.) [details]
