Guides
Acroria
Acroria is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae, subfamily Noctuinae, and tribe Dypterygiini. Established by Francis Walker in 1858, this genus belongs to the diverse owlet moth family, which contains many nocturnal species. The genus has been documented in citizen science observations, with over 200 records on iNaturalist.
Baniana
Baniana is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae, established by Walker in 1858. The genus was previously placed in the subfamily Calpinae of the family Noctuidae before taxonomic reclassification. It contains approximately 50 described species distributed primarily in the Neotropics. The genus is characterized by distinctive wing venation and palp structure.
Concana
Concana is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae (subfamily Calpinae), established by Francis Walker in 1858. The genus contains at least four described species distributed from the southeastern United States through the Caribbean and Central America to Brazil. Species within this genus have been documented from Florida, Costa Rica, and various Antillean islands. The genus belongs to the diverse noctuoid moth fauna of the Neotropical and Nearctic regions.
Eudocima serpentifera
Eudocima serpentifera is a fruit-piercing moth in the family Erebidae, first described by Francis Walker in 1858. The species is known to occur in North America, with observations documented across the region. As a member of the genus Eudocima, it belongs to a group of moths characterized by their ability to pierce fruit skins to access juices. The MONA (Moths of North America) or Hodges number for this species is 8543.1.
Isogona scindens
Isogona scindens is a noctuid moth in the family Erebidae, first described by Francis Walker in 1858. It has a broad Neotropical distribution spanning from the southern United States through Central America to Paraguay, with established populations on multiple Caribbean islands. The species is relatively well-documented, with over 800 observations recorded on iNaturalist.
Philya
A genus of treehoppers in the family Membracidae, established by Walker in 1858. Species within this genus are seldom collected, with limited published biological information available. Philya ferruginosa is the best-documented species, for which the fifth instar nymph has been described and a host plant record established. Members of this genus possess the enlarged pronotum characteristic of treehoppers, though species-specific morphological details remain poorly characterized in the literature.
Phuphena
Phuphena is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae, established by Francis Walker in 1858. The genus contains approximately 13 described species distributed primarily in the Neotropical region. Species within this genus are classified within the subfamily Noctuinae, one of the largest subfamilies of owlet moths. The genus has been documented through museum specimens and limited field observations.
