Prepiella miniola is a moth in the subfamily Arctiinae. It was described by George Hampson in 1900. It is found in Peru and the Amazon region. [1]
Spilomelinae is a very species-rich subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. With 4,135 described species in 344 genera worldwide, it is the most speciose group among pyraloids.
The Thyrididae comprise the family of picture-winged leaf moths. They are the only family in the superfamily Thyridoidea, which sometimes has been included in the Pyraloidea, but this is not supported by cladistic analysis.
The Pyralinae are the typical subfamily of snout moths and occur essentially worldwide, in some cases aided by involuntary introduction by humans. They are rather rare in the Americas however, and their diversity in the Australian region is also limited. Altogether, this subfamily includes about 900 described species, but new ones continue to be discovered. Like many of their relatives in the superfamily Pyraloidea, the caterpillar larvae of many Pyralinae – and in some cases even the adults – have evolved the ability to use unusual foods for nutrition; a few of these can become harmful to humans as pests of stored goods.
Agylla, also formerly known as Churinga, is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Asura is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae, and subtribe Nudariina erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Cisthene is a genus of lichen moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Erebus is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae.
Lambula is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1866.
Macaduma is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae.
Prepiella is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was described by William Schaus in 1899.
Eoophyla is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. It was erected by Charles Swinhoe in 1900.
Pycnarmon is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae described by Julius Lederer in 1863.
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.
Acentropinae is a fairly small subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. Species of this subfamily are exclusively found in wetlands and aquatic habitats.
