Terastia
''Terastia'' is a genus of snout moths in the subfamily Spilomelinae of the family Crambidae. It was described by Achille Guenée in 1854 with ''Terastia meticulosalis'' as type species. The genus is currently placed in the tribe Margaroniini, where it is closely related to the genera '' Agathodes'' and '' Liopasia''. ''Terastia'' with its eight species is distributed in the tropical regions of the Neotropical, Afrotropical and Oriental realm as well as Australasia. Like the closely related genera ''Agathodes'' and ''Liopasia'', the caterpillars of ''Terastia'' species feed on ''Erythrina'' species (Fabaceae).

Margaroniini
Margaroniini is a tribe of the species-rich subfamily Spilomelinae in the pyraloid moth family Crambidae. The tribe was erected by Charles Swinhoe and Everard Charles Cotes in 1889, originally as family Margaronidae. The tribe comprises a number of economically impactful species whose caterpillars feed on agricultural crops. These species include the legume pod borer (''Maruca vitrata''), the jasmine moth (''Palpita vitrealis'') on olives, the cucumber moth ('' Diaphania indica''), species of the genus '' Conogethes'' such as the yellow peach moth ('' C. punctiferalis''), and the coconut leafroller (''Omiodes blackburni''). Furthermore, the box tree moth (''Cydalima perspectalis'') is included in this tribe. Genera The tribe is by far the most species-rich among Spilomelinae. It currently comprises 1107 species in the following 74 genera: *'' Agathodes'' Guenée, 1854 (= ''Stenurges'' Lederer, 1863) *'' Agrioglypta'' Meyrick, 1932 *'' Alytana'' J. C. Shaffer & Munro ...

Oriental Realm
The Indomalayan realm is one of the eight biogeographic realms. It extends across most of South and Southeast Asia and into the southern parts of East Asia. Also called the Oriental realm by biogeographers, Indomalaya spreads all over the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia to lowland southern China, and through Indonesia as far as Sumatra, Java, Bali, and Borneo, east of which lies the Wallace line, the realm boundary named after Alfred Russel Wallace which separates Indomalaya from Australasia. Indomalaya also includes the Philippines, lowland Taiwan, and Japan's Ryukyu Islands. Most of Indomalaya was originally covered by forest, and includes tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, with tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests predominant in much of India and parts of Southeast Asia. The tropical forests of Indomalaya are highly variable and diverse, with economically important trees, especially in the families Dipterocarpaceae and Fabaceae ...

Erythrina
''Erythrina'' is a genus of plants in the pea family, Fabaceae. It contains about 130 species, which are distributed in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. They are trees, with the larger species growing up to in height. The generic name is derived from the Greek word , meaning "red", referring to the flower color of certain species. Names Particularly in horticulture, the name coral tree is used as a collective term for these plants. Flame tree is another vernacular name, but may refer to a number of unrelated plants as well. Many species of ''Erythrina'' have bright red flowers, and this may be the origin of the common name. However, the growth of the branches can resemble the shape of sea coral rather than the color of '' Corallium rubrum'' specifically, and this is an alternative source for the name. Other popular names, usually local and particular to distinct species, liken the flowers' red hues to those of a male chicken's wattles, and/or the flower shape to ...
