Callimorphina
The Callimorphina are a subtribe of woolly bear moths in the family Erebidae. The subtribe was described by Francis Walker in 1865. Many of these moths are easily confused with butterflies, being quite brightly colored and somewhat diurnal. Their antennae are not thickened into "clubs", which is a typical characteristic of butterflies. Taxonomy The subtribe was previously classified as a tribe of the former family Arctiidae. Genera This list of genera in the subtribe were outlined by Michelle A. DaCosta and Susan J. WellerDaCosta MA, Weller SJ (2005) Phylogeny and classification of Callimorphini (Lepidoptera: Arctiidae: Arctiinae).

Dodia
''Dodia'' is a genus of woolly bear moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Harrison Gray Dyar Jr. in 1901. The moths are found in subarctic tundra and taiga ecosystems. They belong to the subtribe Callimorphina of tribe Arctiini. Like most of their closest relatives, they are mid-sized moths (a few cm/around 1 inch wingspan) which may be active all day, but avoid direct sunlight. Unlike many of the Callimorphina, they are inconspicuous and coloured a somewhat translucent grey-brown and without bold markings. They have the typical slender body shape of other species of their subtribe, and they resemble, at a casual glance, certain larentiine geometer moths (Geometridae), e.g. the Operophterini, rather than the more typical Callimorphina. Like in the former, flightless females are known to occur in ''Dodia''. Species Long held to contain only two species, several more have been discovered and described since the 1980s. Consequently, it is quite possible t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
