Garudinistis is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae erected by George Hampson in 1900. [1]
Spilomelinae is a very species-rich subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. With 4,135 described species in 344 genera worldwide, it is the most speciose group among pyraloids.
The Thyrididae comprise the family of picture-winged leaf moths. They are the only family in the superfamily Thyridoidea, which sometimes has been included in the Pyraloidea, but this isn't supported by cladistic analysis.
The Pyralinae are the typical subfamily of snout moths and occur essentially worldwide, in some cases aided by involuntary introduction by humans. They are rather rare in the Americas however, and their diversity in the Australian region is also limited. Altogether, this subfamily includes about 900 described species, but new ones continue to be discovered. Like many of their relatives in the superfamily Pyraloidea, the caterpillar larvae of many Pyralinae – and in some cases even the adults – have evolved the ability to use unusual foods for nutrition; a few of these can become harmful to humans as pests of stored goods.
Hypena is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. It was first described by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802. These non-migratory moths overwinter as pupae and almost never estivate as adults.
Agylla, also formerly known as Churinga, is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Cisthene is a genus of lichen moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Graphosia is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by George Hampson in 1900.
Heliosia is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae erected by George Hampson in 1900.
Erebus is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae.
Lambula is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1866.
Meteugoa is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae erected by George Hampson in 1900.
Miltochrista is a genus of moths of the family Erebidae, subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1819.
Poliosia is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae.
Eoophyla is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. It was erected by Charles Swinhoe in 1900.
Erupa is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae.
Pycnarmon is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae described by Julius Lederer in 1863.
Phryganodes is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae described by Achille Guenée in 1854.
Acontia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was named by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816. Eusceptis, Pseudalypia and Spragueia are sometimes included in the present genus, but here they are tentatively treated as different pending further research. Many species of Tarache were also once placed here.
Aphomia is a genus of small moths belonging to the family Pyralidae. Some breed in the nests of Anthophila, where their caterpillars are parasitic feeders of wax, honey and pollen.
Acentropinae is a fairly small subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. Species of this subfamily are exclusively found in wetlands and aquatic habitats.
