Two subspecies are recognized.
Attacus atlas, the Atlas moth, is a large saturniid moth endemic to the forests of Asia. The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in his 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae.
The Thyrididae comprise the family of picture-winged leaf moths. They are the only family in the superfamily Thyridoidea, which sometimes has been included in the Pyraloidea, but this isn't supported by cladistic analysis.
Tarucus balkanicus, the Balkan Pierrot or little tiger blue, is a small butterfly that belongs to the lycaenids or blues family. It is found in Mauritania, Niger, Sudan (Khartoum), Uganda, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, North Africa, the Balkans, western Asia, parts of central Asia and in India. The habitat consists of very arid savanna.
Rapala lankana, the Malabar flash, is a species of lycaenid or blue butterfly found in South India and Sri Lanka. It was first described by Frederic Moore in 1879.
Corcobara is a monotypic moth genus of the family Erebidae first described by Frederic Moore in 1882. Its only species, Corcobara angulipennis, described by the same author in the same year, is found in India, Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia, New Guinea, Sri Lanka and the Solomons.
Callidrepana patrana is a moth in the family Drepanidae. It was described by Frederic Moore in 1866. It is found in Nepal, India, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, mainland China, Japan and Taiwan.
Banisia myrsusalis, the sapodilla borer or sapota midrib folder, is a species of moth of the family Thyrididae. It was described by Francis Walker in 1859 and is found in North America, Brazil, Australia, southern Asia and Africa.

Teldenia alba is a moth in the family Drepanidae. It was described by Moore in 1882. It is found in Sri Lanka.
Attacus taprobanis is a moth of family Saturniidae. It is native to southern India and Sri Lanka. This species is very similar in morphology to the much more widely distributed Attacus atlas. It was once considered a subspecies of A. atlas.
