Hypotrix is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
The genus Hypotrix (Guenée, 1852) originally included 23 species from southern Mexico to Brazil and Peru. In 2010, based on genital character and novel genetic information, 11 species of Trichorthosia (Grote, 1883), one species of Trichagrotis (McDunnough 1929), and four species from Hexorthodes (McDunnough, 1929) were brought in to form the revised genus Hypotrix. [1]
In females, the most prominent diagnotic character for the genus is the form of the anal papillae, which is "swollen and bulbous basally, then abruptly tapered to a narrow pointed apex". [1] In preserved specimens, this papillae often curves below the end of the abdomen to project anteriorly, sometimes by as much as 180 degrees.
The most notable diagnotic for males is the "membranous flap arising from the middle of the sacculus and partially overtopping the sclerotized part of the sacculus"- particularly the masses of long scales on the pleural membrane, which is specific to this genus. [1]
Apamea is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae first described by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816.
Acontiinae is a subfamily of bird dropping moths in the family Noctuidae. There are more than 50 genera and 430 described species in Acontiinae, found worldwide in temperate and tropical climates.
Amphipyrinae is a subfamily of owlet moths in the family Noctuidae. There are more than 50 genera and 210 described species in Amphipyrinae, although the classifications are likely to change over time.
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.
Condica is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1856.
Dichagyris is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The former genera Loxagrotis, Pseudorichia, Pseudorthosia and Mesembragrotis are now considered subgenera of Dichagyris. From Greek dikha-gyris 'apart, asunder; double' + 'the finest meal or flour'; English pronunciation: /digh-kuh-JIGH-riss/, IPA [dɑj•kə'dʒɑj•ɹɪs].
Euxoa is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae raised to Genus by the German entomologist, Jacob Hübner. The Genus is mostly confined to dry and semi dry areas in the Northern Hemisphere. There 130 species in Eurasia, a few in Africa, and 175 in North America. There are no species in the Genus in South-East Asia or in Australia. In North America, most species are found in Western regions. Of the North American species, 4 are endemic to Mexico. There is one species recorded from Chile, but this may be a mislabeled specimen. In real terms, species numbers do not equal species abundance. Some areas with few species have large numbers of the ones that do live there.
Hexorthodes is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Hydroeciodes is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Lacinipolia is a moth genus in the family Noctuidae.

Protorthodes is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Tarache is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae erected by Jacob Hübner. It includes most former New World Acontia species. Lepidoptera and Some Other Life Forms and The Global Lepidoptera Names Index report this name as a synonym of Acontia.
Tarachidia was a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae, it is now considered a synonym of Ponometia.
Trichorthosia was a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae, it is now considered a synonym of Hypotrix.
