Guides
Disphragis
Disphragis is a genus of notodontid moths (family Notodontidae, subfamily Heterocampinae) containing approximately 137 species. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1820 and is restricted to the New World. Species-level taxonomy has been revised in recent decades, with several new species described from Central America.
Eubaphe
Eubaphe is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae, subfamily Larentiinae, erected by Jacob Hübner in 1823. The genus contains approximately ten described species distributed primarily in North America. Species within this genus are generally small to medium-sized geometrid moths. The genus has been documented through substantial observation records, indicating it is relatively well-represented in collections and citizen science data.
Eusarca
Eusarca is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae, established by Jacob Hübner in 1813. The genus contains approximately 16 described species, including Eusarca confusaria (confused eusarca moth), Eusarca fundaria (dark-edged eusarca moth), and Eusarca packardaria (Packard's eusarca moth). Species in this genus are classified within the subfamily Ennominae. Records indicate presence in North America, including the United States.
Nepterotaea
Nepterotaea is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae, subfamily Ennominae, established by McDunnough in 1920. The genus contains at least two recognized species: N. diagonalis and N. furva. As geometrid moths, members are likely characterized by slender bodies and broad wings typical of the family. The genus appears to be relatively poorly documented in scientific literature.
Sciota
snout moth
Sciota is a genus of snout moths in the family Pyralidae, subfamily Phycitinae, established by George Duryea Hulst in 1888. The genus includes multiple species distributed across North America and Europe, with documented presence in the Iberian Peninsula. Species such as Sciota rhenella laetifica, Sciota hostilis, and Sciota elegiella have been studied in detail regarding their morphology, immature stages, and biology.
Yosemitia
Yosemitia is a genus of moths in the family Pyralidae, subfamily Phycitinae, described by Ragonot in 1901. The genus is currently recognized as a synonym of Zophodia. Members of this group are small to medium-sized pyralid moths, part of the diverse snout moth fauna of North America.
