Neuroxena is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was described by William Forsell Kirby in 1896. [1]
The genus consists of the following species:
The skimmers or perchers and their relatives form the Libellulidae, the largest dragonfly family in the world. It is sometimes considered to contain the Corduliidae as the subfamily Corduliinae and the Macromiidae as the subfamily Macromiinae. Even if these are excluded, there remains a family of over 1000 species. With nearly worldwide distribution, these are almost certainly the most often seen of all dragonflies.
William Forsell Kirby was an English entomologist and folklorist.
Endromidae is a family of moths. It was long considered to be a monotypic family, containing just one species, the Kentish glory, Endromis versicolora, found throughout the Palaearctic region. The family now consists of several genera and about 30 species, all former members of the family Bombycidae.
Aemilia is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae described by William Forsell Kirby in 1892. It was initially named Ameles, but this name properly refers to a praying mantis genus.
Apantesis is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae first described by Francis Walker in 1855. They are found in North and Central America.

Lophocampa is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Thaddeus William Harris in 1841. It contains around 75 species.
Charitosemia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Cuphanoa is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae. The species of this genus are of dull color, and have frequent blossoming sallows in early spring. The proboscis and palpi are rather short, but the third joint of the latter, though short, is visible. The legs are short and very hairy. These moths are usually called "Quakers" by collectors. They bear a general resemblance to the Bombyces and were classed with them by some older writers. They are moths with stout, hairy bodies, and the abdomen, which extends a little beyond the hind wings, is obtuse in the male and more or less pointed in the female.
