Acronicta is a genus of noctuid moths containing about 150 species distributed mainly in the temperate Holarctic, with some in adjacent subtropical regions. The genus was erected by Carl Linnaeus in his 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae. Caterpillars of most Acronicta species are unmistakable, with brightly colored hairy spikes, and often feed quite visibly on common foliate trees. The hairy spikes may contain poison, which cause itchy, painful, swollen rash in humans on contact. The larva of the smeared dagger moth is unusually hairy even for this genus. Acronicta species are generally known as dagger moths, as most have one or more black dagger-shaped markings on their forewing uppersides. But some species have a conspicuous dark ring marking instead.
Apamea is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae first described by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816.
Pyrausta is a speciose genus of moths of the family Crambidae. The genus was erected by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802.
Acontia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was named by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816. Eusceptis, Pseudalypia and Spragueia are sometimes included in the present genus, but here they are tentatively treated as different pending further research. Many species of Tarache were also once placed here.
Andropolia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Annaphila is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1873.
Cucullia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802.
Drasteria is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae.
Eremobina is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae erected by James Halliday McDunnough in 1937.
Euxoa is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae raised to Genus by the German entomologist, Jacob Hübner. The Genus is mostly confined to dry and semi dry areas in the Northern Hemisphere. There 130 species in Eurasia, a few in Africa, and 175 in North America. There are no species in the Genus in South-East Asia or in Australia. In North America, most species are found in Western regions. Of the North American species, 4 are endemic to Mexico. There is one species recorded from Chile, but this may be a mislabeled specimen. In real terms, species numbers do not equal species abundance. Some areas with few species have large numbers of the ones that do live there.
Homorthodes is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Hyperstrotia is a genus of moths of the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by George Hampson in 1910.
Lacinipolia is a moth genus in the family Noctuidae.
Ponometia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Gottlieb August Wilhelm Herrich-Schäffer in 1868.
Sympistis is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1823.
Tarache is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae erected by Jacob Hübner. It includes most former New World Acontia species. Lepidoptera and Some Other Life Forms and The Global Lepidoptera Names Index report this name as a synonym of Acontia.
Aseptis fumeola is a moth of the family Noctuidae first described by George Hampson in 1908. It is found in the US state of Arizona, southern and central California, southern Nevada and south-eastern Utah. The habitat consists of foothills and mountains in dry chaparral, parkland, and conifer forest.
Aseptis lichena is a moth of the family Noctuidae first described by William Barnes and James Halliday McDunnough in 1912. It is found in the United States in south-central California and north-central California. It is also reported from Mount Shasta, Mount Lassen, and other locations in northern California.
Psaphidini is a tribe of owlet moths in the family Noctuidae. There are at least 40 genera and at least 90 described species in Psaphidini.
