Ceranemota partida is a moth in the family Drepanidae. It was described by John Frederick Gates Clarke in 1938. [1] It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from northern Colorado.

The wingspan is 36–41 mm. Adults are inseparable from Ceranemota tearlei in external characters but may be distinguished by characters of the genitalia. Adults have been recorded on wing in July, September and October. [2]

Pyralidae Family of moths

The Pyralidae, commonly called pyralid moths, snout moths or grass moths, are a family of Lepidoptera in the ditrysian superfamily Pyraloidea. In many classifications, the grass moths (Crambidae) are included in the Pyralidae as a subfamily, making the combined group one of the largest families in the Lepidoptera. The latest review by Eugene G. Munroe and Maria Alma Solis retain the Crambidae as a full family of Pyraloidea.

<i>Crocidosema plebejana</i> Species of moth

Crocidosema plebejana, the cotton tipworm, is a tortrix moth, belonging to tribe Eucosmini of subfamily Olethreutinae. It is found today all over the subtropical and tropical regions of the world and even occurs on many oceanic islands – in Polynesia and Saint Helena for example – but has probably been accidentally introduced to much of its current range by humans. In addition, it is also found in some cooler regions, e.g. in Europe except in the east and north; this is probably also not natural, as it was, for example, not recorded in the British Isles before 1900.
