Hepialidae
The Hepialidae are a family of insects in the lepidopteran order. Moths of this family are often referred to as swift moths or ghost moths. Taxonomy and systematics The Hepialidae constitute by far the most diverse group of the infraorder Exoporia. The 60 genera contain at least 587 currently recognised species of these primitive moths worldwide. The genera ''Fraus'' (endemic to Australia), ''Gazoryctra'' (Holarctic), ''Afrotheora'' (Southern African), and ''Antihepialus'' (African) are considered to be the most primitive, containing four genera and about 51 species with a mostly relictual southern Gondwanan distribution and are currently separated from the Hepialidae ''sensu stricto'' which might form a natural, derived group.Nielsen, E.S., Robinson, G.S. and Wagner, D.L. 2000.
