	Notodontidae Notodontidae is a family of moths with approximately 3,800 known species. The family was described by James Francis Stephens in 1829. Moths of this family are found in all parts of the world, but they are most concentrated in tropical areas, especially in the New World (Miller, 1992). Species of this family tend to be heavy-bodied and long-winged, the wings held folded across the back of the body at rest. They rarely display any bright colours, usually being mainly grey or brown, with the exception of the subfamily Dioptinae (Grimaldi and Engel, 2005). These features mean they rather resemble Noctuidae although the families are not closely related. The adults do not feed. Many species have a tuft of hair on the trailing edge of the forewing which protrudes upwards at rest. This gives them their scientific name "back tooth" and the common name of prominents. The common names of some other species reflect their hairiness, such as puss moth and the group commonly known as kittens ( ...

	Dunama ''Dunama'' is a genus of moths of the family Notodontidae described by William Schaus in 1912. Taxonomy Schaus established the genus ''Dunama'' in 1912 for a group of small, relatively drab, mottled and tree-bark patterned, brown notodontid moths with a black orbicular spot. Edward L. Todd revised the genus whose distribution extends from Mexico to Amazonian Brazil in 1976. He described two new species and listed two species, ''D. angulinea'' and ''D. tuna'' from Costa Rica and ''D. angulinea'' was reared in Panama for study in 1976. One additional species was recently described by James S. Miller and Paul Thiaucourt from Ecuador in 2011. The genus traditionally has been placed in the Nystaleinae, but that placement remains provisional because species of ''Dunama'' lack the characteristic morphological traits of most nystaleines. Additionally, all known caterpillars of ''Dunama'' feed on monocots (Musaceae, Marantaceae, Heliconiaceae, Arecaceae), a trait rarely encountered in ...
