Nola is a genus of moths described by William Elford Leach in 1815. They are the namesake of the subfamily Nolinae and the family Nolidae. This genus occurs worldwide wherever suitable habitat is present.
Hypena is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. It was first described by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802. These non-migratory moths overwinter as pupae and almost never come to bait as adults.
Earias is a genus of moths in the monotypic subfamily Eariadinae of the family Nolidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825. Species are found throughout Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia, some being agricultural pests such as bollworms.
Cyana is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. Species are well distributed in Africa, Madagascar, China, India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Sumatra, Java and Borneo. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Lymantria is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. They are widely distributed throughout Europe, Japan, India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Java, and Celebes. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1819.
Manoba is a genus of moths in the family Nolidae. The genus was first described by Francis Walker in 1863.
Adrapsa is a genus of moths of the family Erebidae. It was erected by Francis Walker in 1859.
Amyna is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae erected by Achille Guenée in 1852.
Avitta is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae described by Francis Walker in 1858.
Bertula is a genus of moths of the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1859.

Euplexia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae described by Stephens in 1829.
Hydrillodes is a genus of litter moths of the family Erebidae first described by Achille Guenée in 1854. Its validity is somewhat disputed.
Hypenagonia is a genus of moths of the family Erebidae first described by George Hampson in 1893. The adult moths have pale brown wings with a dark band across each wing. The wingspan of these moths is about 1 centimeter.

Euproctis is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae described by Jacob Hübner in 1819. Species are cosmopolitan, widespread throughout Palearctic, African, Oriental and Australian regions. Molecular phylogenetic studies indicate that the genus as presently understood comprises a large number of unrelated lineages, only a few of which have names, and is therefore in serious need of revision.
