Polia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae described by Ochsenheimer in 1816.
Acronicta is a genus of noctuid moths containing about 150 species distributed mainly in the temperate Holarctic, with some in adjacent subtropical regions. The genus was erected by Carl Linnaeus in his 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae. Caterpillars of most Acronicta species are unmistakable, with brightly colored hairy spikes, and often feed quite visibly on common foliate trees. The hairy spikes may contain poison, which cause itchy, painful, swollen rash in humans on contact. The larva of the smeared dagger moth is unusually hairy even for this genus. Acronicta species are generally known as dagger moths, as most have one or more black dagger-shaped markings on their forewing uppersides. But some species have a conspicuous dark ring marking instead.
Apamea is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae first described by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816.
Agrotis is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816. A number of the species of this genus are extinct.
Acontiinae is a subfamily of bird dropping moths in the family Noctuidae. There are more than 50 genera and 430 described species in Acontiinae, found worldwide in temperate and tropical climates.
Hadenini is a tribe of cutworm or dart moths in the family Noctuidae. There are more than 140 genera and 1,000 described species in Hadenini, found worldwide.
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.
Agrochola is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1821.
Caradrina is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816. It is divided into eight subgenera, including Paradrina and Platyperigea, which are treated as separate genera by some authors.
Condica is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1856.
Cucullia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802.
Dichagyris is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The former genera Loxagrotis, Pseudorichia, Pseudorthosia and Mesembragrotis are now considered subgenera of Dichagyris. From Greek dikha-gyris 'apart, asunder; double' + 'the finest meal or flour'; English pronunciation: /digh-kuh-JIGH-riss/, IPA [dɑj•kə'dʒɑj•ɹɪs].
Euxoa is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae raised to Genus by the German entomologist, Jacob Hübner. The Genus is mostly confined to dry and semi dry areas in the Northern Hemisphere. There 130 species in Eurasia, a few in Africa, and 175 in North America. There are no species in the Genus in South-East Asia or in Australia. In North America, most species are found in Western regions. Of the North American species, 4 are endemic to Mexico. There is one species recorded from Chile, but this may be a mislabeled specimen. In real terms, species numbers do not equal species abundance. Some areas with few species have large numbers of the ones that do live there.
Hadena is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae erected by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802. About fifteen species are native to North America, while over one-hundred are distributed in the Palearctic realm.
Hadula is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Leucania is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae first described by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816.
Orthosia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae erected by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816.
