	Caberini Caberini is a tribe of geometrid moths in the family Geometridae. There are at least 50 described species in Caberini. Taxonomic note: Molecular analyses by Sihvonen et al. (2011) supports separating the tribe Baptini Baptini is a tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Ennominae.

Research by Pitkin (2002) supports the view that Caberini and Baptini should be united, but notes that further study of immature stages is needed.

A very large family, it has around 23,000 species of moths described, and over 1400 species from six subfamilies indigenous to North America alone. A well-known member is the peppered moth, ''Biston betularia'', which has been subject of numerous studies in population genetics. Several other geometer moths are notorious pests. Adults Many geometrids have slender abdomens and broad wings which are usually held flat with the hindwings visible. As such, they appear rather butterfly-like, but in most respects they are typical moths; the majority fly at night, they possess a frenulum to link the wings, and th ...
