Orvasca is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1865.
The following species are included in the genus: [1]
Nola is a genus of moths described by William Elford Leach in 1815. They are the namesake of the subfamily Nolinae and the family Nolidae. This genus occurs worldwide wherever suitable habitat is present.
Amata is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1807.
Lymantria is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. They are widely distributed throughout Europe, Japan, India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Java, and Celebes. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1819.
Bastilla is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was described by Swinhoe in 1918.
Diarsia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Arctornis is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae, and the sole member of the tribe Arctornithini. The genus was erected by Ernst Friedrich Germar in 1810.
Arna is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1855. It contains many species formerly included in the genus Euproctis, such as Arna bipunctapex.
Aroa is a genus of moths in the subfamily Lymantriinae first described by Francis Walker in 1855. Species are distributed in South Africa, China, throughout India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, and Java.
Artaxa is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae erected by Francis Walker in 1855. Some of the species have urticating hairs.
Calliteara is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1881.
Euproctis is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae described by Jacob Hübner in 1819. Species are cosmopolitan, widespread throughout Palearctic, African, Oriental and Australian regions. Molecular phylogenetic studies indicate that the genus as presently understood comprises a large number of unrelated lineages, only a few of which have names, and is therefore in serious need of revision.
Ilema is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was described by Walker in 1855 and renamed by Moore in 1860, because Walker's chosen name was preoccupied.
Laelia is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was described by Stephens in 1828. Species are well distributed throughout Europe, Japan, China, India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar and Java.
Leucoma is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The species are well distributed in Palearctic, Ethiopian, and Oriental regions along with New Britain and Ireland. It was described by Jacob Hübner in 1822.
Nygmia is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1820.
Rhypotoses is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Cyril Leslie Collenette in 1931.
Toxoproctis is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jeremy Daniel Holloway in 1999.
