Tinea antricola is a cave-dwelling moth of the family Tineidae. It is known from India, Sumatra, Indonesia [1] and Malaysia. [2]
The wingspan is 8–11 mm. The forewings are pale grey. The hindwings are light brassy-grey. [3]
Tineidae is a family of moths in the order Lepidoptera described by Pierre André Latreille in 1810. Collectively, they are known as fungus moths or tineid moths. The family contains considerably more than 3,000 species in more than 300 genera. Most of the tineid moths are small or medium-sized, with wings held roofwise over the body when at rest. They are particularly common in the Palaearctic, but many occur elsewhere, and some are found very widely as introduced species.
Monopis obviella is a species of tineoid moth. It belongs to the fungus moth family (Tineidae), and therein to the nominate subfamily Tineinae. It is the type species of Blabophanes, today treated as a junior synonym of the genus Monopis. M. crocicapitella was only separated from the present species in 1859, and is still frequently confused with it even by rather recent sources.
Triaxomera parasitella is a species of tineoid moth. It belongs to the fungus moth family (Tineidae), and therein to the subfamily Nemapogoninae. It is widespread and common in much of western Eurasia, but seems to be absent from some more outlying regions, such as Portugal and the eastern Baltic, Ireland and Iceland. It has also not been recorded from Slovenia but given that it is found in neighboring countries, it may well occur there unnoticed. Recently, the species was recorded from British Columbia. Generally, it is a moth of warm temperate regions, e.g. in Great Britain it is only a rare and scarce species from the English Midlands northwards.
Tinea semifulvella is a species of tineoid moth. It belongs to the fungus moth family (Tineidae), and therein to the nominate subfamily Tineinae. It is widespread and common in much of western Eurasia, but seems to be absent from Portugal and the Balkans as well as the outlying islands. The nocturnal adults are on the wing around May to September, depending on the location, and are easily attracted to light sources.
Tinea pellionella, the case-bearing clothes moth, is a species of tineoid moth in the family Tineidae, the fungus moths. This species has a cosmopolitan distribution, occurring nearly worldwide.
The brown-dotted clothes moth is a species of tineoid moth. It belongs to the fungus moth family (Tineidae), and therein to the nominate subfamily Tineinae. It is the type species of its genus Niditinea.
Nemaxera is a genus of the fungus moth family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the subfamily Nemapogoninae. The genus is considered monotypic, with the single species Nemaxera betulinella placed here.
Monopis laevigella, the skin moth, is a species of tineoid moth. It belongs to the fungus moth family (Tineidae), and therein to the nominate subfamily Tineinae. It is the type species of the genus Monopis and its junior objective synonym Hyalospila. As with the common clothes moth, earlier authors frequently misapplied the name Tinea vestianella to the present species.
Tinea trinotella is a species of tineoid moth. It belongs to the fungus moth family (Tineidae), and therein to the nominate subfamily Tineinae. It was once used as type species of a distinct genus Acedes, but this is synonymized today with Tinea, the type genus of Tineinae, Tineidae and the superfamily Tineoidea.
Nemapogon variatella is a moth of the family Tineidae. It is found in almost all of Europe. It is also found in North America.
Tinea is a genus of the fungus moth family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the subfamily Tineinae. As evident by its name, it is the type genus of its subfamily and family. Established as one of the first subgroups of "Phalaena", it used to contain many species of Tineidae that are nowadays placed in other genera, as well as a few moths nowadays placed elsewhere.
Tinea pallescentella, the large pale clothes moth, is a moth of the family Tineidae. It is found in most of Europe. It is also present in western North America, where it has been recorded from California. There are also records from South America and Australia.
Tinea porphyropa is a cave-dwelling moth of the family Tineidae. It is known from Sumatra, Indonesia and Malaysia.
Tinea accusatrix is a species of moth in the family Tineidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1916. However the placement of this species within the genus Tinea is in doubt. As a result, this species has been referred to as Tinea (s.l.) accusatrix. This species is endemic to New Zealand.
Tinea aetherea is a species of moth in the family Tineidae. It was described by Charles E. Clarke in 1926. However the placement of this species within the genus Tinea is in doubt. As a result, this species has been referred to as Tinea (s.l.) aetherea. This species is endemic to New Zealand.
Tinea argodelta is a species of moth in the family Tineidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1915. However the placement of this species within the genus Tinea is in doubt. As a result, this species has been referred to as Tinea (s.l.) argodelta. This species is endemic to New Zealand.
Tinea astraea is a species of moth in the family Tineidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1911. However the placement of this species within the genus Tinea is in doubt. As a result, this species has been referred to as Tinea (s.l.) astraea. This species is endemic to New Zealand.
Tinea columbariella is a moth belonging to the family Tineidae. The species was first described by Wocke in 1877.
Tinea translucens is a moth belonging to the family Tineidae. The species was first described by Edward Meyrick in 1917.
Tinea dubiella is a species of moth belonging to the family Tineidae.
