Pseudohemihyalea is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae described by Régo Barros in 1956. While the caterpillars of most species of Pseudohemihyalea feed on broad-leaved trees, the P. ambigua group has larvae that feed on conifers. Their forewing coloration has accordingly evolved to light-and-dark lengthwise striping, giving better camouflage among the slim needles of the host plants. In this, they seem to be convergent to certain geometer moths, such as Caripeta piniata or Sabulodes niveostriata.
Senecauxia is a monotypic moth genus in the family Erebidae. Its only species, Senecauxia coraliae, is found in French Guiana. Both the genus and the species were first described by Hervé de Toulgoët in 1989.
Spilosoma is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae originally described by John Curtis in 1825. A very heterogeneous group, it is in need of review by the scientific community, as certain species probably need reclassification into their own genera.
Trichromia is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1819. The members of this genus are largely indigenous to South America.
Turlinia is a monotypic moth genus in the subfamily Arctiinae. Its single species, Turlinia phalaenoides, is found on Madagascar. Both the genus and authority were first described by Hervé de Toulgoët in 1976.
