Dichagyris
Dichagyris is a genus of owlet moths in the family Noctuidae, subfamily Noctuinae. The genus was established by Lederer in 1857 and now includes several former genera—Loxagrotis, Pseudorichia, Pseudorthosia, and Mesembragrotis—as subgenera. The name derives from Greek elements meaning 'apart, asunder; double' and 'the finest meal or flour'. Species in this genus are found primarily in the Palearctic region, with some distribution extending into North America.
