Crypsiphona is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Copromorphidae, the "tropical fruitworm moths" is a family of insects in the lepidopteran order. These moths have broad, rounded forewings, and well-camouflaged scale patterns. Unlike Carposinidae the mouthparts include "labial palps" with the second rather than third segment the longest. With other unusual structural characteristics of the caterpillar and adult, it could represent the sister lineage of all other extant members of this superfamily. The genus Sisyroxena from Madagascar is also notable for its unusual venation and wing scale sockets.
Mnesarchaeoidea is a superfamily of "New Zealand primitive moths" containing one family, Mnesarchaeidae and a single genus, Mnesarchaea, endemic to New Zealand.
Udea is a genus of snout moths in the subfamily Spilomelinae of the family Crambidae. The genus was erected by Achille Guenée in 1845. The currently known 214 species are present on all continents except Antarctica. About 41 species are native to Hawaii.
Orthomecyna is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. All species are endemic to Hawaii.
Palpita is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. Members of the moth genus Stemorrhages may be very similar in appearance.
Tamsica is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae.
Chaetolopha is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae. Most species are endemic to Australia. A number of species previously assigned to this genus, were reassigned to the new genus Parachaetolopha in 2002.
Chlorocoma is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Epipristis is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Edward Meyrick in 1888.
Poecilasthena is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Antipodia is a genus of skipper butterflies in the family Hesperiidae.
Hesperilla is a genus of skipper butterflies in the family Hesperiidae.
Endophthora is a genus of moths belonging to the family Tineidae. This genus is endemic to New Zealand.
Asterivora is a genus of moths in the family Choreutidae. Asterivora was described by J. S. Dugdale in 1979.
Heterocrossa exochana is a species of moth in the family Carposinidae. It is endemic to New Zealand.
The Pseudoterpnini are a tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Geometrinae. The tribe was described by Warren in 1893. It was alternatively treated as subtribe Pseudoterpniti by Jeremy Daniel Holloway in 1996.
Crypsiphona amaura is a moth of the family Geometridae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1888. It is found in the Australian state of Western Australia.
Crypsiphona melanosema is a moth of the family Geometridae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1888. It is found in Australia.
Heterocrossa is a genus of moths in the Carposinidae family. It is endemic to New Zealand. This genus was previously regarded as a synonym of the genus Carposina. However Elwood C. Zimmerman in Insects of Hawaii removed Heterocrossa from synonymy with Carposina. Zimmerman argued that as the genitalia of Heterocrossa and Carposina are distinct, Heterocrossa should not be regarded as a synonym of Carposina. This was agreed with by John S. Dugdale in his annotated catalogue of New Zealand lepidoptera.
Gymnobathra is a genus of moths in the family Oecophoridae. It was first described by Edward Meyrick in 1883. All species are found in New Zealand.
