The Angeronini are a small tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Ennominae. The tribe was first described by William Trowbridge Merrifield Forbes in 1948. As numerous ennomine genera have not yet been assigned to a tribe, the genus list is preliminary.
Euchlaena is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1823.
Euchlaena tigrinaria, the mottled euchlaena, is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species was first described by Achille Guenée in 1857. It is found from New Brunswick to Virginia, west to Texas, Utah and Oregon, north to British Columbia.
The Cytodeme is the total assembly of organisms that use an identical suite of chromosomes to carry their genes. The term was first printed in the 1950s in a book by Heslop-Harrison. Discussing the Deme Terminology - he continued "cytodeme, a population differing in some distinctive cytological feature from others." In most cases the suite is composed of several pairs of homologous chromosomes with or without a pair of sex chromosomes. Since the only acceptable proof of the identity (homology) of chromosomes lies in their ability to pair fully from end to end during meiosis it follows that:
- In asexual taxa membership of a cytodeme can only be presumed on such evidence as visual similarity of chromosomal ideotype, but never proved.
- In sexual taxa all of the members of one cytodeme are fully intercompatible yielding the fertile progeny which proves their membership.
