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 ...

Endromidae
Endromidae is a family of moths consisting of 16 genera with 72 species.

Bombycidae
The Bombycidae are a family of moths known as silkworm moths. The best-known species is ''Bombyx mori'' (Linnaeus), or domestic silk moth, native to northern China and domesticated for millennia. Another well-known species is '' Bombyx mandarina'', also native to Asia. Taxonomy The family was recently severely restricted, and currently contains only one or two subfamilies, the Bombycinae and Epiinae (previously the tribe Epiini). The former subfamilies Oberthueriinae and Prismostictinae have been placed as subjective junior synonyms of Endromidae. The former subfamilies Apatelodinae and Phiditiinae have been reinstated as separate families. Genera This list is provisional. ''Epia'' may also be placed within Apatelodidae, along with '' Tamphana''. Some genera were formerly placed in Apatelodinae, such as '' Anticla'' and '' Quentalia''.Hamilton, C.A., St Laurent, R.A., Dexter, K. et al.

Bombycoidea Genera
Bombycoidea is a superfamily of moths, including the silk moths, giant silk moths, sphinx moths, saturniids, and relatives. The superfamily Lasiocampoidea is a close relative and was historically sometimes merged in this group. After many years of debate and shifting taxonomies, the most recent classifications treat the superfamily as containing 10 constituent families. Characteristics Bombycoid larvae often exhibit horns.''Firefly Encyclopedia of Insects and Spiders'', edited by Christopher O'Toole, , 2002 In the adult stage they are typically large, and include the largest moths in the world. Families Bombycoidea includes the following families: * Anthelidae * Apatelodidae * Bombycidae * Brahmaeidae (syn. Lemoniidae) * Carthaeidae * Endromidae (syn. Mirinidae) * Eupterotidae * Phiditiidae * Saturniidae * Sphingidae The Sphingidae are a family of moths commonly called sphinx moths, also colloquially known as hawk moths, with many of their caterpillars known ...
