Geometrinae
Geometrinae is the nominate subfamily of the geometer moth family (Geometridae). It is strongly split, containing a considerable number of tribes of which most are presently very small or monotypic. These small moths are often a light bluish green, leading to the common name of emerald moths, though a few species called thus are also found in the tribe Campaeini of the Ennominae. In 2018, a phylogeny and classification based on a molecular phylogenetic analysis was published in the ''Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society'' in which 13 tribes were accepted. There are about 2,300 described species, mostly from the tropics. Selected genera and species * Blotched emerald, ''Comibaena bajularia'' * '' Dysphania'': the genus of 'false tiger moths' of Asia * Large emerald, ''Geometra papilionaria'' * Essex emerald, ''Thetidia smaragdaria'' Genera ''incertae sedis'' Some geometrine genera have not been definitely assigned to a tribe.See references in Savela (2007) These include: ...

Comibaena
''Comibaena'' is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae. It was described by Jacob Hübner in 1823. Description It differs from ''Agathia'' in the antennae being bipectinated (comb like on both sides) to three-fourths length in both sexes. The hind tibia of the male is not dilated. Hindwings with veins 6 and 7 stalked. Species * ''Comibaena albimarginata'' (Warren, 1893) * '' Comibaena amoenaria'' (Oberthür, 1880) * ''Comibaena argentataria'' Leech, 1897 * '' Comibaena attenuata'' (Warren, 1896) * ''Comibaena bajularia'' (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775) – blotched emerald * '' Comibaena biplaga'' Walker, 1861 * '' Comibaena cassidara'' (Guenée, 1857) * ''Comibaena cheramota'' Meyrick * ''Comibaena connata'' (Warren, 1898) * '' Comibaena delicatior'' (Warren, 1897) * ''Comibaena diluta'' (Warren, 1895) * ''Comibaena falcipennis'' (Yazaki, 1991) * '' Comibaena fuscidorsata'' Prout, 1912 * ''Comibaena leucochloraria'' (Mabille, 1880) * '' Comibaena leucospilata'' Walker * ...

Tribe (biology)
In biology, a tribe is a taxonomic rank above genus, but below family (biology), family and subfamily. It is sometimes subdivided into subtribes. By convention, all taxonomic ranks from genus upwards are capitalized, including both tribe and subtribe. In zoology, the standard ending for the name of a zoological tribe is "-ini". Examples include the tribes Goat-antelope#Tribe Caprini, Caprini (goat-antelopes), Hominini (hominins), Bombini (bumblebees), and Thunnini (tunas). The tribe Hominini is divided into subtribes by some scientists; subtribe Hominina then comprises "humans". The standard ending for the name of a zoological subtribe is "-ina". In botany, the standard ending for the name of a botanical tribe is "-eae". Examples include the tribes Acalypheae and Scilloideae#Hyacintheae, Hyacintheae. The tribe Hyacintheae is divided into subtribes, including the subtribe Massoniinae. The standard ending for the name of a botanical subtribe is "-inae". In bacteriology, the form ...

Geometer Moth
The geometer moths are moths belonging to the family (biology), family Geometridae of the insect order (biology), order Lepidoptera, the moths and butterflies. Their scientific name derives from the Ancient Greek ''geo'' γεω (derivative form of or "the earth"), and ''metron'' "measure" in reference to the way their larvae, or inchworms, appear to measure the earth as they move along in a looping fashion. A very large family, it has around 23,000 species of moths described, and over 1400 species from six subfamilies indigenous to North America alone. A well-known member is the peppered moth, ''Biston betularia'', which has been subject of numerous studies in population genetics. Several other geometer moths are notorious pest (organism), pests. Adults Many geometrids have slender abdomen#Other animals, abdomens and broad wings which are usually held flat with the hindwings visible. As such, they appear rather butterfly-like, but in most respects they are typical moths; the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Subfamily
In biological classification, a subfamily ( Latin: ', plural ') is an auxiliary (intermediate) taxonomic rank, next below family but more inclusive than genus. Standard nomenclature rules end subfamily botanical names with "-oideae", and zoological names with "-inae". See also * International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants The ''International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants'' (ICN) is the set of rules and recommendations dealing with the formal botanical names that are given to plants, fungi and a few other groups of organisms, all those "trad ... * International Code of Zoological Nomenclature * Rank (botany) * Rank (zoology) Sources {{biology-stub ...
