Haimbachia
Haimbachia is a genus of crambid moths comprising approximately 30 described species distributed across the Americas, Africa, and Asia. The genus was established by Dyar in 1909. At least one species, Haimbachia ignefusalis (formerly placed in the genus Contesta), has been documented as an agricultural pest with studied oviposition preferences and habitat selection behavior. Most species appear to be small, relatively nondescript moths with limited published ecological data.
