Boarmia
''Hypomecis'' is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae first described by Jacob Hübner in 1821. Description Palpi oblique, reaching beyond the frons and fringed with hair below. Forewings with slightly crenulate (scalloped) cilia. Vein 3 from near angle of cell and veins 7 to 9 from near upper angle. Typically with vein 10 and 11 arise from cell. Hindwings with vein 3 from near angle of cell. Cilia crenulate. Ecology Most of them are patterned cryptically and when they sit on bark, the markings appear like patches of lichen. Studies have shown that they choose the site for resting with care so that the pattern of crypsis is enhanced. Selected species Species include: * '' Hypomecis adamata'' (Felder, 1874) * ''Hypomecis brevifasciata'' (Wileman, 1911) * ''Hypomecis buchholzaria'' (Lemmer, 1937) * ''Hypomecis ceylanicaria'' Nietner, 1861 * '' Hypomecis cineracea'' (Moore, 1888) * ''Hypomecis corticea'' (Bastelberger, 1911) * '' Hypomecis driophila'' Goldfinch, 1944 * '' H ...

Ectropis
''Ectropis'' is a genus in the geometer moth family (Geometridae). They are mostly paleotropical, but also plentiful in Australia and extend into Asia. Only one species – or cryptic species complex – (the engrailed/small engrailed, ''E. bistortata''/''E. crepuscularia'') is found in Europe. There are about 100 known species in this genus. Systematics and taxonomy All junior synonyms of ''Ectropis'' use ''G. crepuscularia'' as type species, and thus, even though this large genus might warrant subgeneric division, no names are presently available. Apart from ''Tephrosia'', established by Jean Baptiste Boisduval in 1840, the synonyms are also junior homonyms and consequently completely invalid. One of them, ''Coenobita'', was proposed by Johannes von Nepomuk Franz Xaver Gistel in 1848. Gistl was unaware that Jacob Hübner had described the genus ''Ectropis'', but he knew of Boisduval's ''Tephrosia''. However, Gistl misread the name of the spider genus ''Theraphosa'' (es ...

Boarmiini
The Boarmiini (also often called ''Cleorini'') are a large tribe of geometer moths in the Ennominae subfamily. Description and systematics This family is sometimes massively expanded, with the closely related Bistonini, Bupalini, Erannini, Gnophini, Melanolophini, Phaseliini and Theriini all merged into it. The eggs of all these geometer moths have the chorion cells characteristically arranged in longitudinal rows. The eggs of the Boarmiini in the narrow sense usually have a typical slender and narrow shape, with a soft chorion consisting of heavy-walled but unridged polygonal cells. However, in ''Cleora'' for example, the eggs approach the wide-walled shape found in many Bistonini. Adding further to the uncertainty is the fact that the Alsophilinae, usually treated as a small subfamily in their own right, might be a specialized lineage of Boarmiini; though their caterpillars are quite different, their pupae have a peculiar T-shaped cremaster which very much resembles that o ...

Hypomecis Roboraria
''Hypomecis roboraria'', the great oak beauty, is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species occurs in the Palearctic. The nominate subspecies is found in Europe. The subspecies ''isabellaria'' is found in western Central Asia east across Siberia and Mongolia to northern China. The wingspan is 40–50 mm. The male has feather-shaped antennae, the female thread-shaped. The forewings have three narrow, wavy, dark cross-bands that are clear at the front edge, often blurry further back. The hindwings have two such cross bands, one of which is usually quite clear. The larva is naked, brown and gnarled and strongly resembles a dead oak twig. The moths fly from May to August. The caterpillars feed on oak. Similar species include '' Hypomecis punctinalis'' and ''Hypomecis sp.''
