Rhodostrophiini is a tribe of the geometer moth family (Geometridae), with about 200 species in 17 genera and five genera tentatively associated with the tribe. [1]
Idaea, sometimes called Hyriogona, is a large genus of geometer moths. It was erected by Georg Friedrich Treitschke in 1825. They are found nearly worldwide, with many native to the Mediterranean, the African savannas, and the deserts of western Asia.
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.
Aeolochroma is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Prout in 1912.
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.
Lophophelma is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Prout in 1912.
Perizoma is a genus in the geometer moth family (Geometridae). It is the type genus of tribe Perizomini in subfamily Larentiinae. The tribe is considered monotypic by those who include the genera Gagitodes, Martania and Mesotype in Perizoma. Some other less closely related species formerly placed here are now elsewhere in the Larentiinae, e.g. in Entephria of the tribe Larentiini.
Pingasa is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae first described by Frederic Moore in 1887.
Problepsis 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.
Somatina is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae first described by Achille Guenée in 1858.
Zythos is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae. It was described by David Stephen Fletcher in 1979.
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.
Scopulini is a tribe of the geometer moth family (Geometridae), with about 900 species in seven genera. The tribe was described by Philogène Auguste Joseph Duponchel in 1845.
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.
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.
Scopula pulchellata is a moth of the family Geometridae. It is found in the Indo-Australian tropics, from India, Sri Lanka to Taiwan and the Solomon Islands, as well as in Africa.
Idaea lycaugidia is a moth of the family Geometridae first described by Louis Beethoven Prout in 1932. It is found in northern Madagascar.
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.
Sterrhini is a tribe of the geometer moth family (Geometridae), with about 825 species in 19 genera. There are also 6 genera with 36 species tentatively associated with the tribe. The tribe was erected by Edward Meyrick in 1892.
