Patanotis is a genus of moths in the family Momphidae. The species of this genus are found in Sri Lanka. [1]
The Elachistidae are a family of small moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. Some authors lump about 3,300 species in eight subfamilies here, but this arrangement almost certainly results in a massively paraphyletic and completely unnatural assemblage, united merely by symplesiomorphies retained from the first gelechioid moths.
Urodidae, whose species are commonly known as false burnet moths, is a family of moths in the lepidopteran order. It is the type genus in the superfamily, Urodoidea, with three genera, one of which, Wockia, occurs in Europe.
The Lecithoceridae, or long-horned moths, are a family of small moths described by Simon Le Marchand in 1947. Although lecithocerids are found throughout the world, the great majority are found in the Indomalayan realm and the southern part of the Palaearctic realm.
Anarsia is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae.
Dichomeris is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1818.
Helcystogramma is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae. The genus was erected by Philipp Christoph Zeller in 1877.
Hypatima is a genus of the twirler moth family (Gelechiidae). Among these, it belongs to a distinct lineage, which is variously treated as tribe Chelariini in subfamilies Dichomeridinae, Gelechiinae, or even Pexicopiinae, and historically was considered a subfamily in its own right, Chelariinae. Of this lineage, Hypatima – under its junior synonym Chelaria – is the type genus. This genus has numerous species, but its exact limits are not quite clear. This genus occurs mainly in the Southern Hemisphere, though one of the better-known species is the only member of this genus native to Europe, the lobster-clawed moth.
Polyhymno is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae.
Stomopteryx is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae.
Telphusa is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae.
Metasia is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. They are found mainly in Europe and Australia, but also in Africa, Asia, North America, and Pacific islands.
Udea is a genus of snout moths in the subfamily Spilomelinae of the family Crambidae. The genus was erected by Achille Guenée in 1845. The currently known 216 species are present on all continents except Antarctica. About 41 species are native to Hawaii.
Ascalenia is a genus of moths in the family Cosmopterigidae.
Platyptilia is a genus of moths in the family Pterophoridae. The genus was described by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
Pterophorinae is a subfamily of moths in the family Pterophoridae.
Cerconota is a genus of moths in the family Depressariidae. In 1991, I. W. B. Nye and David Stephen Fletcher included it in the family Oecophoridae and the subfamily Stenomatinae. It was later placed in the family Elachistidae and subfamily Stenomatinae by Ronald W. Hodges, in Niels Peder Kristensen (1999). Other classifications placed them in the Elachistidae or Oecophoridae, but they actually seem to belong to the Depressariidae.
Carposina is a genus of moths in the Carposinidae family.
Gonioterma is a genus of moths in the subfamily Stenomatinae.
Stenoma is a genus of moths. The type species is Stenoma litura, which was described by Philipp Christoph Zeller in 1839.
Chlamydastis is a genus of moths in the subfamily Stenomatinae.
