''Cleoeromene'' is a monotypic moth genus of the family Crambidae described by David E. Gaskin in 1986. It contains only one species, ''Cleoeromene smithi'', described by Herbert Druce in 1896 which is found in south-western Mexico, including Guerrero. The wingspan is 15–17 mm.Gaskin, David E.

Diptychophorini
Crambinae is a large subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. It currently includes over 1,800 species worldwide. The larvae are root feeders or stem borers, mostly on grasses. A few species are pests of sod grasses, maize, sugar cane, rice, and other Poaceae. The monophyly of this group is supported by the structure of the tympanal organs and the phallus attached medially to the juxta, as well as genetic analyses. Taxonomy (biology), Taxonomists' opinions differ as to the correct placement of the Crambidae, some authorities treating them as a subfamily of the family Pyralidae. If this is done, the present group would be demoted to tribe (biology), tribe status, as Crambini.
