Pyralinae
The Pyralinae are the typical subfamily of snout moths (family (biology), family Pyralidae) and occur essentially worldwide, in some cases aided by involuntary introduction by humans. They are rather rare in the Americas however, and their diversity in the Australian region is also limited. Altogether, this subfamily includes about 900 described species, but new ones continue to be discovered. Like many of their relatives in the superfamily (zoology), superfamily Pyraloidea, the caterpillar larvae of Pyralinae – and in some cases even the adults – have Evolution, evolved the ability to use unusual foods for nutrition; a few of these can become harmful to humans as pest (organism), pests of stored goods.Solis (2007) Description and ecology This subfamily unites mid-sized to smallish moths with a more or less crypsis, cryptic coloration including most often various hues of brownish colors. Adult females of Pyralinae (except ''Cardamyla'' and ''Embryoglossa'') are charac ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Émile Louis Ragonot
Émile Louis Ragonot (12 October 1843 – 13 October 1895) was a French entomologist. In 1885, he became president of the ''Société entomologique de France''. He named 301 new genera of butterflies and moths, mostly Pyralidae, pyralid moths. He is also the author of several books: * Diagnoses of North American Phycitidae and Galleriidae (1887) published in Paris * Nouveaux genres et espèces de Phycitidae & Galleriidae (1888) * Essai sur une classification des Pyralites (1891-1892) * Monographie des Phycitinae et des Galleriinae. pp. 1–602 In Grand Duke Nicholas Mikhailovich of Russia, N.M.

Moth
Moths are a group of insects that includes all members of the order Lepidoptera that are not Butterfly, butterflies. They were previously classified as suborder Heterocera, but the group is Paraphyly, paraphyletic with respect to butterflies (suborder Rhopalocera) and neither subordinate taxon is used in modern classifications. Moths make up the vast majority of the order. There are approximately 160,000 species of moth, many of which have yet to be described. Most species of moth are nocturnal, although there are also crepuscular and Diurnal animal, diurnal species. Differences between butterflies and moths While the Butterfly, butterflies form a monophyly, monophyletic group, the moths, comprising the rest of the Lepidoptera, do not. Many attempts have been made to group the superfamilies of the Lepidoptera into natural groups, most of which fail because one of the two groups is not monophyletic: Microlepidoptera and Macrolepidoptera, Heterocera and Rhopalocera, Jugatae a ...

Pyralidae
The Pyralidae, commonly called pyralid moths, snout moths or grass moths, are a family of Lepidoptera in the ditrysian superfamily Pyraloidea. In many (particularly older) classifications, the grass moths (Crambidae) are included in the Pyralidae as a subfamily, making the combined group one of the largest families in the Lepidoptera. The latest review by Eugene G. Munroe and Maria Alma Solis retain the Crambidae as a full family of Pyraloidea. The wingspans for small and medium-sized species are usually between with variable morphological features. It is a diverse group, with more than 6,000 species described worldwide, and more than 600 species in America north of Mexico, comprising the third largest moth family in North America. At least 42 species have been recorded from North Dakota in the subfamilies of Pyralidae. Relationship with humans Most of these small moths are inconspicuous. Many are economically important pests, including waxworms, which are the caterp ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
