Abraxini
The Abraxini are a tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Ennominae. Here, the Cassymini are considered a specialized offshoot of the Abraxini and merged therein; some authors consider them a distinct tribe however. Genera As numerous ennominae genera have not yet been assigned to a tribe, the genus list is preliminary. Most of the genera listed here would be placed in the Cassymini if these are considered separate.Holloway (1994) * ''Abraxas'' ** Magpie, ''Abraxas grossulariata'' ** Clouded magpie, ''Abraxas sylvata'' * '' Auzeodes'' * '' Ballantiophora'' * '' Berberodes'' * '' Cassyma'' * '' Danala'' * '' Gyostega'' * '' Heterostegane'' * '' Hydatocapnia'' * '' Leuciris'' * '' Ligdia'' ** Scorched carpet, ''Ligdia adustata'' * '' Lomaspilis'' ** Clouded border, ''Lomaspilis marginata'' * '' Ninodes'' * '' Orthocabera'' (tentatively placed here) * '' Peratophyga'' * '' Pristostegania'' * '' Protitame'' * '' Pycnostega'' * '' Stegania'' * '' Syngonorthus'' * ''Xenostega'' * ...

Ennominae
Ennominae is the largest subfamily of the geometer moth family (Geometridae) with some 9,700 described species in 1,100 genera. They are usually a fairly small moths, though some (such as the peppered moth) grow to be considerably large. This subfamily has a global distribution. It includes some species that are notorious defoliating pests. The subfamily was first described by Philogène Auguste Joseph Duponchel in 1845. The status of several tribes is debated.For example, the Boarmiini are sometimes massively expanded to include the Bistonini, Bupalini, Erannini, Gnophini, Melanolophini, Phaseliini and Theriini. The Nacophorini and perhaps the Campaeini might need to be merged with the Lithinini, and all three might warrant merging into the Ennomini.The group sometimes separated as Cassymini is tentatively included in the Abraxini here. The Alsophilinae, usually treated as a small subfamily in their own right, might simply be a specialized lineage of Boarmiini.  Se ...

Dorset Cream Wave
''Stegania trimaculata'', the Dorset cream wave, is a moth of the family Geometridae. It is found throughout Europe, mainly in Southern Europe, but its range has expanded in recent years. The wingspan is 26–28 mm. The length of the forewings is 10–13 mm. The moth flies in two generations from May to September . The larvae feed on various species of poplar.

Scorched Carpet
''Ligdia adustata'', the scorched carpet, is a moth of the family Geometridae. Etymology The species Latin name ''adusta'', meaning ''burnt'', refers to the scorched appearance of the wings of these moths. Description The wingspan is 25–30 mm. The basic color of the wings is glossy white, creamy white or light brownish. The basal area of the forewings is dark brown and can sometimes be slightly blue-grey. Across the forewings near the outer margin there is a blue-grey and brown wavy band. Hindwings are whitish with wavy pale brown lines on the slightly wavy outer edges. The underside of the wings is suffused with reddish brown. Larvae are moderately stout, bright green with red dorsal spots, a red lateral blotch on the 1st—2nd abdominals and red marks on claspers; a rare variety is grey-brown. The pupae are red-brown with blackish wings. ''Ligdia adustata'' has two generations per year ( bivoltine species). The adults fly in April–May, and later in July–August, but ...
