Fisera is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae, the geometer moths. The genus is native to Australia. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1860. [1] [2]
There are about nine species. [3]
Species include:
Alexander Walker Scott was an Australian entomologist mainly interested in butterflies.
Hypatima is a genus of the twirler moth family (Gelechiidae). Among these, it belongs to a distinct lineage, which is variously treated as tribe Chelariini in subfamilies Dichomeridinae, Gelechiinae, or even Pexicopiinae, and historically was considered a subfamily in its own right, Chelariinae. Of this lineage, Hypatima – under its junior synonym Chelaria – is the type genus. This genus has numerous species, but its exact limits are not quite clear. This genus occurs mainly in the Southern Hemisphere, though one of the better-known species is the only member of this genus native to Europe, the lobster-clawed moth.
Halone is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae from southern Asia and Australia. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Fisera eribola, the orange-hooded crest-moth, is a species of moth of the family Geometridae. It was described by Edward Guest in 1887 and it is found in Australia.
Agrotera is a genus of snout moths in the subfamily Spilomelinae of the family Crambidae. It is the type genus of the tribe Agroterini and currently comprises 28 species distributed in the Afrotropical, Palearctic, Indomalayan and Australasian realm.
Carmara is a monotypic moth genus of the family Noctuidae. Its only species, Carmara subcervina, is found in Sri Lanka, Japan, Taiwan, Borneo and Australia. Both the genus and species were first described by Francis Walker in 1864.
Cernia is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae. Its only species, Cernia amyclaria, is found in Australia. Both the genus and species were described by Francis Walker in 1860.
Circopetes is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae erected by Louis Beethoven Prout in 1910. Its only species, Circopetes obtusata, the grey twisted moth, was first described by Francis Walker in 1860. It is found in mainland Australia.
Corula is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae. Its only species, Corula geometroides, the ash-grey geometrid, is found in Australia. Both the genus and species were first described by Francis Walker in 1856.
Didymoctenia is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae and subfamily Ennominae which was described by Warren in 1901. Its only species, Didymoctenia exsuperata, the thick-lined bark moth, was first described by Francis Walker in 1860. It is found in Australia.
Ectropis is a genus in the geometer moth family (Geometridae). They are mostly paleotropical, but also plentiful in Australia and extend into Asia. Only one species – or cryptic species complex – is found in Europe. There are about 100 known species in this genus.
Hyposidra is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae first described by Achille Guenée in 1857.
Palleopa is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae. Its only species, Palleopa innotata, the finely-streaked crest-moth, is known from Australia, including Tasmania. Both the genus and species were first described by Francis Walker in 1866.
Phelotis is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae erected by Edward Guest in 1887. Its single species, Phelotis cognata, the long-fringed bark moth, first described by Francis Walker in 1860, is found in Australia.
Probithia is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Psilosticha is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1892.
Syneora is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Alfred Jefferis Turner in 1917. All the species are found in Australia.
Fisera perplexata, the light-tan crest-moth, is a moth of the family Geometridae first described by Francis Walker in 1860. It is found in Australia.
Nisista serrata, the serrated crest-moth, is a species of moth of the family Geometridae first described by Francis Walker in 1857. It is found in Australia, including Tasmania, Victoria and South Australia.
