Lymantriopsis is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. It contains the single species Lymantriopsis lacteata, which is found in Gabon. [1] [2]
Sesioidea is a superfamily containing clearwing moths (Sesiidae), castniid moths (Castniidae) and little bear moths (Brachodidae). There is evidence from head and thoracic morphology that the first two families, internally feeding in plants as caterpillars, are sisters, whilst some brachodids are known to feed on leaf surfaces. Sesioidea is closely related to Cossoidea, which contains the also internal-feeding Goat and Leopard moths, and recent taxonomic treatments consider the sesioid families as part of Cossoidea sensu lato.
Gracillariidae is an important family of insects in the order Lepidoptera and the principal family of leaf miners that includes several economic, horticultural or recently invasive pest species such as the horse-chestnut leaf miner, Cameraria ohridella.
Clemensia is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was described by Packard in 1864.
Eriomastyx is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Rothschild and Jordan in 1905.
The Obtectomera is a clade of macro-moths and butterflies, comprising over 100,000 species in at least 12 superfamilies. This clade was initially defined by a pupal stage with the four anterior abdominal segments fused and immobile as the sole synapomorphy, but was later revised to include the modification of the dorsal edge of the pulvillus with a protrusion in the adult.
Geniascota is a genus of moths of the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by George Hampson in 1926.
Micragrotis is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by George Hampson in 1903.

Hymenia perspectalis, the spotted beet webworm moth, is a species of moth of the family Crambidae. It is found in various parts of the world, including North America, where it is found from Maine to Florida, west to Texas and north to Michigan and Ontario.

It is found in Africa south of the Sahara, the Arabian Peninsula and on the islands of the Indian Ocean. Furthermore, it is found in southern Europe. It can be distinguished from Scopula lactaria only by examination of its genitalia.
