Terastia
Terastia is a genus of snout moths (Crambidae) comprising eight species distributed across tropical regions worldwide. First described by Achille Guenée in 1854 with Terastia meticulosalis as the type species, the genus is currently classified within the tribe Margaroniini. Species occur in the Neotropical, Afrotropical, and Oriental realms as well as Australasia. Caterpillars are known to feed exclusively on Erythrina species (Fabaceae), a trait shared with related genera Agathodes and Liopasia.
