  • Parascotia

    Parascotia is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae, erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825. The genus was formerly classified in the subfamily Calpinae of Noctuidae but is now placed in Boletobiinae. It contains four described species, including the waved black moth (Parascotia fuliginaria), originally described by Linnaeus in 1761.

  • Tarache

    Tarache is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae, subfamily Acontiinae, erected by Jacob Hübner in 1823. The genus comprises primarily New World species, most of which were formerly classified under the genus Acontia. Taxonomic authorities differ on its status: Catalogue of Life treats Tarache as accepted, while GBIF and some lepidopteran resources list it as a synonym of Acontia. The genus includes approximately 50 described species arranged in three main species groups (aprica, bilimeki, and lucasi groups).
