List Of Moths Of Australia (Blastobasidae)
{{Use dmy dates, date=April 2022 This is a list of the Australian species of the family Blastobasidae. It also acts as an index to the species articles and forms part of the full List of moths of Australia. These species are usually found in the warmer and wetter parts of Australia. There are no known species from the arid zone. The larvae feed on plant detritus. Larvae have been recorded feeding on old cones of kauri pines and in the old flower spikes and young fruit of palms. *''Blastobasis anthoptera'' Lower, 1907 *'' Blastobasis homadelpha'' Meyrick, 1902 *'' Blastobasis incuriosa'' Meyrick, 1916 *'' Blastobasis leucotoxa'' Meyrick, 1902 *''Blastobasis adustella'' Walsingham, 1894 *'' Blastobasis monozona'' Lower, 1907 *'' Blastobasis nephelias'' Meyrick, 1902 *'' Blastobasis pallescens'' Turner, 1947 *'' Blastobasis pentasticta'' Turner, 1947 *'' Blastobasis phaeopasta'' Turner, 1947 *'' Blastobasis scotia'' Turner, 1947 *'' Blastobasis tanyptera'' Turner, 1947 *'' Blastobas ...

Family (biology)
Family ( la, familia, plural ') is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between order and genus. A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as the "walnut family". What belongs to a family—or if a described family should be recognized at all—are proposed and determined by practicing taxonomists. There are no hard rules for describing or recognizing a family, but in plants, they can be characterized on the basis of both vegetative and reproductive features of plant species. Taxonomists often take different positions about descriptions, and there may be no broad consensus across the scientific community for some time. The publishing of new data and opini ...
