Chloridea Virescens Chickory
''Chloridea'' is a genus of owlet moths in the family Noctuidae. There are at least three described species in ''Chloridea''. The species of ''Chloridea'' were formerly members of the genus ''Heliothis'', but were moved to ''Chloridea'' when it was reinstated as valid genus as a result of research published in 2013. Species These species belong to the genus ''Chloridea'': * '' Chloridea subflexa'' (Guenée, 1852) (subflexus straw moth) * '' Chloridea tergemina'' (Felder & Rogenhofer, 1874) * ''Chloridea virescens ''Chloridea virescens'', commonly known as the tobacco budworm, is a moth of the family Noctuidae found throughout the eastern and southwestern United States along with parts of Central America and South America.

Owlet Moth
The Noctuidae, commonly known as owlet moths, cutworms or armyworms, are a family of moths. They are considered the most controversial family in the superfamily Noctuoidea because many of the clades are constantly changing, along with the other families of the Noctuoidea. It was considered the largest family in Lepidoptera for a long time, but after regrouping Lymantriinae, Catocalinae and Calpinae within the family Erebidae, the latter holds this title now. Currently, Noctuidae is the second largest family in Noctuoidea, with about 1,089 genera and 11,772 species. This classification is still contingent, as more changes continue to appear between Noctuidae and Erebidae. Description Adult: Most noctuid adults have drab wings, but some subfamilies, such as Acronictinae and Agaristinae, are very colorful, especially those from tropical regions (e.g. '' Baorisa hieroglyphica''). They are characterized by a structure in the metathorax called the nodular sclerite or epaulette, which ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Heliothis
''Heliothis'' is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae. It was first described by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816. Some of the species have larvae which are agricultural pests on crop species such as tobacco, cotton, soybean and pigeon pea. Some species originally in this genus have been moved to other genera, see ''Chloridea'' and ''Helicoverpa''. Taxonomy Several species of moths of agricultural importance that used to be placed in this genus now are classified as members of the genus ''Helicoverpa'', such as the corn earworm, ''Helicoverpa zea''. The species '' subflexa'', '' tergemina'', and '' virescens'' are now members of the genus ''Chloridea''. Description The proboscis is fully developed. Palpi porrect (extending forward) and second joint evenly clothed with long hair. The third joint is short and depressed and a short frontal shift. Thorax and abdomen without tufts. Fore tibia has a pair of slender terminal spines, whereas mid and hind tibia also spined. Forewings w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Chloridea Subflexa
''Chloridea subflexa'' is a moth of the family Noctuidae first described by Achille Guenée in 1852. It is found from most of the United States, throughout the Antilles, and south to Argentina. The larvae feed exclusively on fruits of ''Physalis'' species, which are enclosed in an inflated, lantern-shaped calyx. To feed, each newly emerged caterpillar cuts a small hole in the calyx and then bores into the fruit. Once inside, the caterpillar spends the majority of its time sheltered inside of the fruit's husk. ''Chloridea subflexa'' was formerly a member of the genus ''Heliothis ''Heliothis'' is a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae. It was first described by Ferdinand Ochsenheimer in 1816.

Chloridea Tergemina
''Chloridea tergemina'' is a species of moth of the family Noctuidae. It is found in South America, including Brazil. The larvae feed on various solanaceaeous plants.

Chloridea Virescens
''Chloridea virescens'', commonly known as the tobacco budworm, is a moth of the family Noctuidae found throughout the eastern and southwestern United States along with parts of Central America and South America. It is a major pest of field crops including tobacco (as its common name suggests) and cotton. However, it is able to thrive on a wide variety of host plants ranging from fruits, vegetables, flowers, and weeds. Control of this pest has proven to be particularly difficult due to a variety of factors, but widespread insecticide and pesticide resistance have proven particularly concerning. ''Chloridea virescens'' was formerly a member of the genus '' Heliothis'', but was moved to the reinstated genus '' Chloridea'' as a result of genetic and morphological research published in 2013. Description Adult ''C. virescens'' are brownish in color with a light green tinge. The front wings have three dark bands, each associated with a whitish or cream border. Hindwings are whitish ...

Heliothinae
Heliothinae is a small, cosmopolitan subfamily of moths in the family Noctuidae, with about 400 described species worldwide. It includes a number of economically significant agricultural pest species, such as '' Helicoverpa armigera'' and ''Helicoverpa zea''. Taxonomy The subfamily has been studied extensively. Important works include studies by Hardwick (1965 and 1970) and Matthews (1988). Distribution and diversity Heliothinae is a cosmopolitan subfamily of around 400 species. Its species thrive in hot, dry regions of the world, and the subfamily has its highest species diversity in seasonally-arid tropics and subtropics, such as those found Australia, sections of Asia, the southwest region of the United States, and Africa. Larvae The subfamily includes both specialist species, of which the larvae feed on only a limited range of plants, and polyphagous generalist species. The subfamily contains several agricultural pests, including '' Helicoverpa armigera'', ''Helicoverpa as ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
