Asthenini
Asthenini is a tribe of geometer moths within the subfamily Larentiinae, established by Warren in 1893. The tribe has undergone significant taxonomic revision, with its circumscription historically debated; it was notably merged with Eupitheciini by Holloway in 'The Moths of Borneo'. A critical 2002 review by Xue and Scoble recognized 18 core genera, though subsequent research has reinstated some previously excluded genera such as Eois and Minoa. The tribe remains taxonomically fluid, with some genera of uncertain placement.
