''Gondysia'' is a genus of moth Moths are a paraphyletic group of insects that includes all members of the order Lepidoptera that are not butterflies, with moths making up the vast majority of the order.

''Gondysia similis'', the gordonia darkwing is a moth of the family Noctuidae. The species was first described by Achille Guenée in 1852.Poole, R. W. (1989). ''Lepidopterorum Catalogus'' (New Series) Fascicle 118, Noctuidae. CRC Press. . It is found in the US from North Carolina to Mississippi and Florida.

Gondysia Smithii
''Gondysia smithii'', or Smith's darkwing, is a moth of the family Noctuidae. The species was first described by Achille Guenée in 1852.Poole, R. W. (1989). ''Lepidopterorum Catalogus'' (New Series) Fascicle 118, Noctuidae. CRC Press. . It is found in the United States, from North Carolina southward to Georgia and westward to Texas northward in the Mississippi Valley to Missouri. It has recently been recorded from Virginia and Florida but not yet from Louisiana or Arkansas, although it does occur close by and would be expected in those states as well. It occurs in open savanna and mesic woodland habitats. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan ... is 37–40 mm. Adults are on wing from April to September.

Gondysia Telma
''Gondysia telma'' is a moth of the family Noctuidae first described by Sullivan in 2010. It is found in the United States, from North Carolina southward at least to the Florida Panhandle and central Florida and westward to Texas, with one record farther north from Indiana. It occurs in swamp forests where there is standing water. In this habitat red maples tend to dominate emergent forests whereas mature forests are more mixed with cypress often the dominant large tree. The length of the forewings is 19–20 mm. There are multiple brooded throughout its range with adults on wing from April through September. Etymology The Greek word ''telma'' refers to standing water. Specimens from North Carolina and Florida are associated with hydric Hydric soil is soil which is permanently or seasonally saturated by water, resulting in anaerobic conditions, as found in wetlands.

Poaphilini
The Poaphilini are a tribe of moths in the family Erebidae. Taxonomy Phylogenetic studies have shown that the tribe is most closely related to the tribe Ophiusini. Those studies indicate that the genera ''Achaea'', '' Mimophisma'', and '' Ophisma'' belong in the Poaphilini despite formerly being classified in the Ophiusini.

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. '' Panthera leo'' (lion) and '' Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. phylogenetic analysis should c ...

Moth
Moths are a paraphyletic group of insects that includes all members of the order Lepidoptera that are not butterflies, with moths making up the vast majority of the order. There are thought to be approximately 160,000 species of moth, many of which have yet to be described. Most species of moth are nocturnal, but there are also crepuscular and diurnal species. Differences between butterflies and moths While the butterflies form a 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 and Frenatae, Monotrysia and Ditrysia.Scoble, MJ 1995.

Erebidae
The Erebidae are a family of moths in the superfamily Noctuoidea. The family is among the largest families of moths by species count and contains a wide variety of well-known macromoth groups. The family includes the underwings (''Catocala''); litter moths ( Herminiinae); tiger, lichen, and wasp moths ( Arctiinae); tussock moths ( Lymantriinae), including the arctic woolly bear moth ('' Gynaephora groenlandica''); piercing moths (Calpinae and others); micronoctuoid moths ( Micronoctuini); snout moths ( Hypeninae); and zales, though many of these common names can also refer to moths outside the Erebidae (for example, crambid snout moths). Some of the erebid moths are called owlets. The sizes of the adults range from among the largest of all moths (> wingspan in the black witch) to the smallest of the macromoths ( wingspan in some of the Micronoctuini). The coloration of the adults spans the full range of dull, drab, and camouflaged (e.g., '' Zale lunifera'' and litter ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dysgonia
''Dysgonia'' is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1823. Taxonomy Many species formerly in the genus were moved to other genera, such as ''Bastilla'', ''Buzara'', '' Pindara'' and '' Macaldenia'' by Jeremy Daniel Holloway and Scott E. Miller in 2003. Other former members of ''Dysgonia'' were moved to the genus ''Parallelia''.
