Cidariini
The Cidariini are the largest tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Larentiinae (possibly a distinct familyYoung (2008)). The Cidariini include many of the species known as "carpets" or, ambiguously, "carpet moths" (most other "carpets" are in the Xanthorhoini), and are among the few geometer moths that have been subject to fairly comprehensive cladistic study of their phylogeny. The tribe was described by Philogène Auguste Joseph Duponchel in 1845. Genera As several larentiine genera have not yet been assigned to a tribe, the genus list is still preliminary; for example the genus '' Almeria'' may well belong in the Cidariini.See references in Savela (2007) Several well-known species are also listed: Footnotes References * (2008)Family group names in Geometridae Retrieved 22 July 2008. * * (2008): Characterisation of the Australian Nacophorini using adult morphology, and phylogeny of the Geometridae based on morphological characters.

Blue-bordered Carpet
''Plemyria rubiginata'', the blue-bordered carpet, is a moth of the family Geometridae found in Europe and across the Palearctic. The moth was first described by the Austrian lepidopterists Michael Denis and Ignaz Schiffermüller in 1775. Description The wingspan is 22–28 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is milky white. The basal field is light brown to black brown. A large light brown to black-brown stain on the costa near the centre stands out. The intensity and shape of this spot can vary. From the apex area runs a blue-grey marginal band which continues on the hindwings usually in an attenuated form. A thin white squiggly line is visible in this band. The forewings and hindwings each show a black discal fleck, which can be sometimes be very unclear. "White, more glossy than in any succeeding species of the group, yet more thinly scaled than ''ocellata''. Forewing with brown basal patch and anterior half of median band, both wings with more or less well-defin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Green Carpet
''Colostygia pectinataria'', the green carpet, is a moth of the genus ''Colostygia'' in the family Geometridae. It was first described by August Wilhelm Knoch in 1781. The moth has a wingspan from . The strong forewing ground colour is green to bluish green. The wing pattern shows the following colour sequence: a small region at the wing base brown green, the ensuing basal region brighter green, a wide and strongly serrated on the outside discal region dark green edged with white, the postdiscal region whitish green and the marginal region tinted brownish green. There are two distinct blackish spots near the front edge of the wing (costa) and one on the inner edge. In older specimens, the greenish colour can fade. Sometimes newly emerged hatched moths have a whitish, yellowish or pink colour. The hindwings shimmer grey white and have faint lines. The antennae of the males are combed, those of females are simple.Prout, L. B. (1912–16). Geometridae. In A. Seitz (ed.) ''The Macr ...
