Plinia contains the following species:
Pliny may refer to:
A jaboticaba, spelled jabuticaba in Portuguese, is a round, edible fruit produced by a jaboticaba tree, also known as Brazilian grapetree. The purplish-black, white-pulped fruit grows directly on the trunk of the tree, making it an example of 'cauliflory'. It is eaten raw or used to make jellies, jams, juice or wine. The tree, of the family Myrtaceae, is native to the states of Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, Goiás and São Paulo in Brazil. Related species in the genus Myrciaria, often referred to by the same common names, are native to Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, Peru and Bolivia.
Plinia is a genus of flowering plants in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae described by Linnaeus in 1753. It is native to Central and South America as well as the West Indies.
Eurybrachidae is a small family of planthoppers with species occurring in parts of Asia, Australia and Africa. They are remarkable for the sophistication of their automimicry.
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.
Cycnia is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1818.
Dichomeris is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1818.
The subfamily Aphaeninae is a group of hemipteran insects, especially abundant and diverse in the tropics, in the family Fulgoridae, or "lanternflies".
Virbia is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Prionapteryx is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae.
Zanclognatha is a genus of litter moths of the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Julius Lederer in 1857.

Cercopidae are the largest family of Cercopoidea, a xylem-feeding insect group, commonly called froghoppers. They belong to the hemipteran suborder Auchenorrhyncha. A 2023 phylogenetic study of the family suggested the elevation of subfamily Ischnorhininae to full family status as Ischnorhinidae, leaving a monophyletic Cercopinae.
Caphys bilineata is a species of snout moth. It was described by Caspar Stoll in 1781. It is found in much of Central America and South America, including Arizona, Honduras, Panama, Bahamas, Cuba, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Puerto Rico, Saint Vincent, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Suriname and Venezuela.
Plinia peruviana, commonly known as jabuticaba cabinho in Brazil, is a species of plant in the family Myrtaceae. It is endemic to central, South America.
Plinia rivularis, commonly known as yva poroity, jaboticabarana, jabúriti, guapuriti, cambucá peixoto, jabuticaba de cacho, or piuna is a species of plant in the family Myrtaceae.
Myrciaria rupestris is a species of plant in the family Myrtaceae. It is endemic to west Cuba. Plinia rubrinervis and Plinia rupestris were transferred to Myrciaria as this single species in 2014.
