Doidae
Doidae is a small family (biology), family of Lepidoptera with an exclusively New World distribution, with species occurring in Central America, the south-western United States, and northern South America. Taxonomical placement Doidae was elevated to family rank by Julian P. Donahue and John W. Brown in 1987. They have a complex taxonomical history, and have previously been placed in Geometridae, Arctiidae, Lymantriidae and Dioptidae among several other families. As a family, Doidae was formerly included in superfamily Noctuoidea, but was transferred to the Drepanoidea in 2011 by van Nieukerken et al. Genera and species , the Global Biodiversity Information Facility lists seven species in two genera for Doidae: * Genus ''Doa (moth), Doa'' - type genus ** ''Doa ampla'' - South-western US, Mexico ** ''Doa cubana'' - Cuba ** ''Doa dora'' - Mexico, California ** ''Doa raspa'' - Mexico, Belize ** ''Doa translucida'' - Colombia * Genus ''Leuculodes'' ** ''Leuculodes lacteolar ...

Noctuoidea
Noctuoidea is the superfamily of noctuid (Latin "night owl") or "owlet" moths, and has more than 70,000 described species, the largest number of any Lepidopteran superfamily. Its classification has not yet reached a satisfactory or stable state. Since the end of the 20th century, increasing availability of molecular phylogenetic data for this hugely successful radiation has led to several competing proposals for a taxonomic arrangement that correctly represents the relationships between the major lineages. Briefly, the disputes center on the fact that in old treatments (which were just as unable to reach a general consensus) the distinctness of some groups, such as the Arctiinae or Lymantriidae, was overrated due to their characteristic appearance, while some less-studied lineages conventionally held to be Noctuidae are in fact quite distinct. This requires a rearrangement at least of the latter family (by simply including anything disputed within it). This is quite unwieldy, ...
