Episcythrastis is a genus of moths of the family Pyralidae described by Edward Meyrick in 1937.
The following species are mostly placed in Myelopsis , although it is sometimes treated as a synonym of Episcythrastis:
Idaea, sometimes called Hyriogona, is a large genus of geometer moths. It was erected by Georg Friedrich Treitschke in 1825. They are found nearly worldwide, with many native to the Mediterranean, the African savannas, and the deserts of western Asia.
Crambinae is a large subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. It currently includes over 1,800 species worldwide. The larvae are root feeders or stem borers, mostly on grasses. A few species are pests of sod grasses, maize, sugar cane, rice, and other Poaceae. The monophyly of this group is supported by the structure of the tympanal organs and the phallus attached medially to the juxta.
Acrobasis is a genus of moths of the family Pyralidae.
Hednota is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae.
Loxostege is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae.
Pyrausta is a speciose genus of moths of the family Crambidae. The genus was erected by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802.
The Epipaschiinae are a subfamily of snout moths. Almost 600 species are known today, which are found mainly in the tropics and subtropics. Some occur in temperate regions, but the subfamily is apparently completely absent from Europe, at least as native species. A few Epipaschiinae are crop pests that may occasionally become economically significant.
Homoeosoma is a genus of moths of the family Pyralidae.
Pococera is a genus of snout moths in the subfamily Epipaschiinae, found mainly in North and Central America. It was described by Philipp Christoph Zeller in 1848.
Dioryctria is a genus of snout moths. It was described by Philipp Christoph Zeller in 1846.
Euzophera is a genus of snout moths. It was described by Philipp Christoph Zeller in 1867.
Myelopsis is a genus of moths of the family Pyralidae described by Carl Heinrich in 1956. It is sometimes included in the genus Episcythrastis.
Myelopsis alatella is a species of snout moth in the genus Episcythrastis. It was described by George Duryea Hulst in 1887 and is known from the south-western United States, mainly California.
Episcythrastis elaphitis is a species of snout moth in the genus Episcythrastis. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1937, and is known from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Myelopsis immundella is a species of snout moth in the genus Episcythrastis. It was described by George Duryea Hulst in 1890. It is found in North America.
Myelopsis minutularia is a species of snout moth in the genus Episcythrastis. It was described by George Duryea Hulst in 1887. It is found in most of North America.
Myelopsis subtetricella is a species of snout moth in the genus Episcythrastis. It was described by Émile Louis Ragonot in 1889. It is found from Canada through the United States, as far south as southern California and Florida.
Sciota is a genus of snout moths. It was described by George Duryea Hulst in 1888.
Laetilia is a genus of snout moths. It was described by Émile Louis Ragonot in 1889.
Pempelia is a genus of moths of the family Pyralidae described by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
