Tarsolepis is a genus of moths in the family Notodontidae erected by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1872.
There are about 15 species in the genus, which are distributed from India, Indochina, China, Korea, Japan, Taiwan through the oriental islands of the Philippines and Indonesia until New Guinea. The highest diversity of species is found in Indochina. [1] The genus has been recorded from a wide range of lowland forest types. [2] The larvae feed on the maple family (Aceraceae). [1]

Spilosoma is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae originally described by John Curtis in 1825. A very heterogeneous group, it is in need of review by the scientific community, as certain species probably need reclassification into their own genera.
Calliteara is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1881.
Euproctis is a genus of tussock moths in the family Erebidae described by Jacob Hübner in 1819. Species are cosmopolitan, widespread throughout Palearctic, African, Oriental and Australian regions. Molecular phylogenetic studies indicate that the genus as presently understood comprises a large number of unrelated lineages, only a few of which have names, and is therefore in serious need of revision.
