Larentiini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae. The tribe was first described by Philogène Auguste Joseph Duponchel in 1845.
Idaea, sometimes called Hyriogona, is a large genus of geometer moths. It was erected by Georg Friedrich Treitschke in 1825. They are found nearly worldwide, with many native to the Mediterranean, the African savannas, and the deserts of western Asia.
Alsophila is a genus of the moth family Geometridae, subfamily Alsophilinae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825. The genus is notable because of distinct sexual dimorphism leading to strongly reduced wings in females, so much so that they cannot fly. The moths fly in late autumn or early spring.
Asthena is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Charissa is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Colostygia is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
Ennada is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Entephria is a genus in the geometer moth family (Geometridae). There is no unambiguous common name for these moths; like many other members of their subfamily Larentiinae, they are sometimes called "carpets". The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
Erannis is a geometer moth genus of the subfamily Ennominae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825. It is placed by some entomologists in the tribe Erannini as the type genus, but others merge this group into the tribe Boarmiini or Bistonini.
Lithostege is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
Lythria is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1823. It is the only genus of the monotypic tribe Lythriini described by Claude Herbulot in 1962.
Plagodis is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
Rhodostrophia is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1823.
Asthenini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae first described by Warren in 1893. The tribe has been combined with Eupitheciini in the past, most notably by Jeremy Daniel Holloway in his work The Moths of Borneo.
Chesiadini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae. The tribe was described by Stephens in 1850.
Melanthiini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae. The tribe was described by Philogène Auguste Joseph Duponchel in 1845.
Xanthorhoini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae. The tribe was described by Pierce in 1914.
Rheumapterini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae.
Eupitheciini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae, often referred to as pugs. The tribe was described by Tutt in 1896.
Solitaneini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae.
