It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California and Nevada. Moths in this genus are distinguished from moths in similar genera by their small palpi and obsolete tongues.

<i>Eudonia</i> Genus of moths

Eudonia is a large and widespread genus in the grass moth family (Crambidae), subfamily Scopariinae. There is no common name for the roughly 250 species placed here; new species are still being described regularly. Although the genus was proposed early in the 19th century, many of these moths were for a long time retained in Scoparia, the type genus of the subfamily and a close relative of Eudonia. A few small genera have been proposed for separation from Eudonia, but given the size of this group this is not particularly convincing; thus, all are retained here pending a comprehensive phylogenetic review.

Mojavia is a monotypic moth genus of the family Crambidae erected by Eugene G. Munroe in 1961.
