Leptocroca scholaea is a moth of the family Oecophoridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1884. It is found in New Zealand. [1]
Pyraustinae is a large subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. It currently includes over 1,400 species; most of them tropical but some found in temperate regions including both North America and Europe.
Spilomelinae is a very species-rich subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. With 4,132 described species in 340 genera worldwide, it is the most speciose group among pyraloids.
Crambinae is a large subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. It currently includes over 1,800 species worldwide. The larvae are root feeders or stem borers, mostly on grasses. A few species are pests of sod grasses, maize, sugar cane, rice, and other Poaceae. The monophyly of this group is supported by the structure of the tympanal organs and the phallus attached medially to the juxta, as well as genetic analyses.
Imma is a large genus of moths in the obtectomeran "micromoth" family Immidae. This is the type genus of its family. They are widespread in the tropics, with most species occurring between the Himalayas and the Oceanian region; the genus is furthermore plentiful in the Neotropics, but not very diverse in the Afrotropics.
Eudonia is a large and widespread genus in the grass moth family (Crambidae), subfamily Scopariinae. There is no common name for the roughly 250 species placed here; new species are still being described regularly. Although the genus was proposed early in the 19th century, many of these moths were for a long time retained in Scoparia, the type genus of the subfamily and a close relative of Eudonia. A few small genera have been proposed for separation from Eudonia, but given the size of this group this is not particularly convincing; thus, all are retained here pending a comprehensive phylogenetic review.
Metasia is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae.
The Oecophorinae are the nominate subfamily of moths in the concealer moth family (Oecophoridae). They are part of the insufficiently studied superfamily Gelechioidea, and like their relatives, the circumscription of this taxon is disputed.
Choreutis is a moth genus. It belongs to the metalmark moths, and therein to subfamily Choreutinae. Of these, it is the type genus. The genus was described by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
The Epipaschiinae are a subfamily of snout moths. More than 720 species are known today, which are found mainly in the tropics and subtropics. Some occur in temperate regions, but the subfamily is apparently completely absent from Europe, at least as native species. A few Epipaschiinae are crop pests that may occasionally become economically significant.
Leptocroca asphaltis is a moth of the family Oecophoridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1911. It is endemic to New Zealand.
Leptocroca vinaria is a moth of the family Oecophoridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1914. It is found in New Zealand.
Musotiminae is a subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1884
Leptocroca xyrias is a species of moth in the family Oecophoridae. The taxonomy of this species is in need of revision and L. xyrias likely belongs to a separate genus. It is endemic to New Zealand. It has been classified as Data Deficient by the Department of Conservation.
Gymnobathra is a genus of moths in the family Oecophoridae. It was first described by Edward Meyrick in 1883. All species are found in New Zealand.
Agroterini is a tribe of the species-rich subfamily Spilomelinae in the pyraloid moth family Crambidae. The tribe was erected by Alexandre Noël Charles Acloque in 1897.
Margaroniini is a tribe of the species-rich subfamily Spilomelinae in the pyraloid moth family Crambidae. The tribe was erected by Charles Swinhoe and Everard Charles Cotes in 1889.
Leptocroca amenena is a moth of the family Oecophoridae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1883. It is endemic to New Zealand. The classification of this moth within the genus Leptocroca is regarded as unsatisfactory and in need of revision. As such this species is currently also known as Leptocroca (s.l.) amenena.
Leptocroca porophora is a moth of the family Oecophoridae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1929. It is endemic to New Zealand. The classification of this moth within the genus Leptocroca is regarded as unsatisfactory and in need of revision. As such this species is currently also known as Leptocroca (s.l.) porophora.
Leptocroca antinoma is a moth of the family Oecophoridae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1910. It is found in New Zealand at the Kermadec Islands and has also been collected in Australia.
