Talara is a genus of lichen moths in the family Erebidae. There are more than 40 described species in Talara, found in Central and South America. [1] [2] [3]
These 49 species belong to the genus Talara: [1]
Nola is a genus of moths described by William Elford Leach in 1815. They are the namesake of the subfamily Nolinae and the family Nolidae. This genus occurs worldwide wherever suitable habitat is present.
Crambinae is a large subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. It currently includes over 1,800 species worldwide. The larvae are root feeders or stem borers, mostly on grasses. A few species are pests of sod grasses, maize, sugar cane, rice, and other Poaceae. The monophyly of this group is supported by the structure of the tympanal organs and the phallus attached medially to the juxta, as well as genetic analyses.
Cisthene is a genus of lichen moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Francis Walker in 1854.
Heliura is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1876.
Lycomorphodes is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae.
Mesothen is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by George Hampson in 1898.
Nodozana is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae erected by Herbert Druce in 1899.
Saurita is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Gottlieb August Wilhelm Herrich-Schäffer in 1855.
Sphecosoma is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1876.
Lamprosema is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae described by Jacob Hübner in 1823.
Pyrausta is a speciose genus of moths of the family Crambidae. The genus was erected by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1802.
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.
Deltote is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was described by Reichenbach in 1817.
Eriopyga is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by Achille Guenée in 1852.
Leucania is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae first described by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816.
Lithacodia is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Meganola is a genus of moths of the family Nolidae. The genus was erected by Harrison Gray Dyar Jr. in 1898. It is sometimes considered a synonym of Roeselia.
The Epipaschiinae are a subfamily of snout moths. More than 720 species are known today, which are found mainly in the tropics and subtropics. Some occur in temperate regions, but the subfamily is apparently completely absent from Europe, at least as native species. A few Epipaschiinae are crop pests that may occasionally become economically significant.
