The Pseudoterpnini are a tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Geometrinae. The tribe was described by Warren in 1893. It was alternatively treated as subtribe Pseudoterpniti by Jeremy Daniel Holloway in 1996.
Pseudoterpnini are widely distributed in the Old World, from western Europe to the western Pacific, in temperate, subtropical and tropical regions.
The tribe consists of over 300 species in 34 genera:
Though small in absolute diversity of genera, the Hemitheini are nonetheless the largest tribes of geometer moths in the subfamily Geometrinae. Like most Geometrinae, they are small greenish "emerald moths". The tribe was first described by Charles Théophile Bruand d'Uzelle in 1846.
Dysgonia is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1823.
Aeolochroma is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Prout in 1912.
Agathia is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Achille Guenée in 1858.
Chrysocraspeda is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Charles Swinhoe in 1893.
Cyclophora is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae. Many species are referred to as mochas in reference to their colouration, primarily in Europe.
Ectropis is a genus in the geometer moth family (Geometridae). They are mostly paleotropical, but also plentiful in Australia and extend into Asia. Only one species – or cryptic species complex – is found in Europe. There are about 100 known species in this genus.
Epipristis is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae erected by Edward Meyrick in 1888.
Herochroma is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae. The genus was described by Charles Swinhoe in 1893.
Hypobapta is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Prout in 1912.
Hypodoxa is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Prout in 1912.
Pingasa is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae first described by Frederic Moore in 1887.
Prasinocyma is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Scopula is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802.
Sterrhinae is a large subfamily of geometer moths with some 3,000 described species, with more than half belonging to the taxonomically difficult, very diverse genera, Idaea and Scopula. This subfamily was described by Edward Meyrick in 1892. They are the most diverse in the tropics with the number of species decreasing with increasing latitude and elevation.
Oenochrominae is a subfamily of the moth family Geometridae.
Asthenini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae first described by Warren in 1893. The tribe has been combined with Eupitheciini in the past, most notably by Jeremy Daniel Holloway in his work The Moths of Borneo.
Eupitheciini is a tribe of geometer moths under subfamily Larentiinae, often referred to as pugs. The tribe was described by Tutt in 1896.
Desmobathrinae is a subfamily of the moth family Geometridae described by Edward Meyrick in 1886.
Cosymbiini is a tribe of the geometer moth family (Geometridae), with about 515 species in 11 genera, and 5 genera with 170 species tentatively associated with the tribe.
