Etymology
The species name is derived from Latin caesura (meaning a pause or break) and refers to the white mark arising from the forewing anal margin, which forms a narrow, transverse bar in most Xenomigia species but which is interrupted along the anal fold to form two small, white spots in X. caesura.
