Josiomorphoides is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was described by Hering in 1925. [1]
Oecophoridae is a family of small moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. The phylogeny and systematics of gelechoid moths are still not fully resolved, and the circumscription of the Oecophoridae is strongly affected by this.
The Elachistidae are a family of small moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. Some authors lump about 3,300 species in eight subfamilies here, but this arrangement almost certainly results in a massively paraphyletic and completely unnatural assemblage, united merely by symplesiomorphies retained from the first gelechioid moths.
The Gelechiidae are a family of moths commonly referred to as twirler moths or gelechiid moths. They are the namesake family of the huge and little-studied superfamily Gelechioidea, and the family's taxonomy has been subject to considerable dispute. These are generally very small moths with narrow, fringed wings. The larvae of most species feed internally on various parts of their host plants, sometimes causing galls. Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga) is a host plant common to many species of the family, particularly of the genus Chionodes, which as a result is more diverse in North America than usual for Gelechioidea.
The Lecithoceridae, or long-horned moths, are a family of small moths described by Simon Le Marchand in 1947. Although lecithocerids are found throughout the world, the great majority are found in the Indomalayan realm and the southern part of the Palaearctic realm.
The Pyralini are a tribe of snout moths described by Pierre André Latreille in 1809. They belong to the subfamily Pyralinae, which contains the "typical" snout moths of the Old World and some other regions. The genus list presented here is provisional.
Calodesma is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1820.
Chetone is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jean Baptiste Boisduval in 1870.
Crocomela is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was described by William Forsell Kirby in 1892.
Ctenuchidia is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1866.
Gardinia is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was described by William Forsell Kirby in 1892.
Hyalurga is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1819.
Hypocrita is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1807.
Isostola is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae described by Felder in 1874.
Pseudophaloe is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was described by Hering in 1925.
Thyrgis is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Josia is a genus of moths of the family Notodontidae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1819.
Tinea is a genus of the fungus moth family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the subfamily Tineinae. As evident by its name, it is the type genus of its subfamily and family. Established as one of the first subgroups of "Phalaena", it used to contain many species of Tineidae that are nowadays placed in other genera, as well as a few moths nowadays placed elsewhere.
Xyloryctidae is a family of moths contained within the superfamily Gelechioidea described by Edward Meyrick in 1890. Most genera are found in the Indo-Australian region. While many of these moths are tiny, some members of the family grow to a wingspan of up to 66 mm, making them giants among the micromoths.
The Pericopina is a subtribe of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The subtribe was described by Francis Walker in 1869.
Ratarda is a genus of moths in the family Cossidae.
