Phrygionis platinata is a species in the moth family Geometridae found in Central and South America. [1] [2]
These three subspecies belong to the species Phrygionis platinata:
The Noctuidae, commonly known as owlet moths, cutworms or armyworms, are a family of moths. They are considered the most controversial family in the superfamily Noctuoidea because many of the clades are constantly changing, along with the other families of the Noctuoidea. It was considered the largest family in Lepidoptera for a long time, but after regrouping Lymantriinae, Catocalinae and Calpinae within the family Erebidae, the latter holds this title now. Currently, Noctuidae is the second largest family in Noctuoidea, with about 1,089 genera and 11,772 species. This classification is still contingent, as more changes continue to appear between Noctuidae and Erebidae.
Crambidae comprises the grass moth family of lepidopterans. They are variable in appearance, with the nominal subfamily Crambinae taking up closely folded postures on grass stems where they are inconspicuous, while other subfamilies include brightly coloured and patterned insects that rest in wing-spread attitudes.
Achille Guenée was a French lawyer and entomologist.
Acontia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was named by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816. Eusceptis, Pseudalypia and Spragueia are sometimes included in the present genus, but here they are tentatively treated as different pending further research. Many species of Tarache were also once placed here.
Macrochilo is a genus of litter moths of the family Erebidae. They are found in North America, Europe, and Madagascar. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
Achrosis is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae, found in Europe, Asia, and Australia.
Phrygionis is a neotropical moth genus in the family Geometridae.
Dysgonia torrida, commonly known as the jigsaw, is a species of moth in the family Erebidae. The species was first described by Achille Guenée in 1852. It is found from the tropical and subtropical areas of Africa to Spain, southern Italy, Greece, Syria, Israel, Iran, Uzbekistan towards India, Sri Lanka and Myanmar.
Phrygionis paradoxata, the jeweled satyr moth or silvery phrygionis, is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species was first described by Achille Guenée in 1858. It is found in South America, Central America, Florida, and the Caribbean.
Phrygionis privignaria is a moth in the family Geometridae described by Achille Guenée in 1858. It is distributed over the Caribbean, North, Central and South America.
Phrygionis auriferaria, the golden-winged palyas moth, is a species of geometrid moth in the family Geometridae. It is found in the Caribbean and Florida.
Dysstroma hersiliata, the orange-barred carpet moth, is a species of geometrid moth in the family Geometridae. It is found in North America.
Baptini is a tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Ennominae.
Margaroniini is a tribe of the species-rich subfamily Spilomelinae in the pyraloid moth family Crambidae. The tribe was erected by Charles Swinhoe and Everard Charles Cotes in 1889, originally as family Margaronidae.
Nomophilini is a tribe of the species-rich subfamily Spilomelinae in the pyraloid moth family Crambidae. The tribe was erected by Vladimir Ivanovitsch Kuznetzov and Alexandr A. Stekolnikov in 1979.
Phrygionis polita is a species in the moth family Geometridae found in Central and South America.
