August Busck
Augustus Busck (February 18, 1870 – March 7, 1944) was a Danish-American entomologist with the United States Department of Agriculture's Bureau of Entomology. He is best known for his work with microlepidoptera, of which he described over 600 species. His collections of Lepidoptera from North America and the Panama Canal Zone are held by the National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C.

Moth
Moths are a paraphyletic group of insects that includes all members of the order Lepidoptera that are not butterflies, with moths making up the vast majority of the order. There are thought to be approximately 160,000 species of moth, many of which have yet to be described. Most species of moth are nocturnal, but there are also crepuscular and diurnal species. Differences between butterflies and moths While the butterflies form a monophyletic group, the moths, comprising the rest of the Lepidoptera, do not. Many attempts have been made to group the superfamilies of the Lepidoptera into natural groups, most of which fail because one of the two groups is not monophyletic: Microlepidoptera and Macrolepidoptera, Heterocera and Rhopalocera, Jugatae and Frenatae, Monotrysia and Ditrysia.Scoble, MJ 1995. The Lepidoptera: Form, function and diversity. Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press; 404 p. Although the rules for distinguishing moths from butterflies are not well establishe ...

Tortricinae
The Tortricinae are the nominate subfamily of tortrix moths. Commonly referred to as leafrollers, as the larvae build shelters by folding or rolling leaves of the food plant, the tortricinae include several notable pests as well species used as biological control agents against invasive weeds. Genera ''incertae sedis'' These tortricine genera have not been assigned to a tribe yet: * '' Apateta'' * ''Apinoglossa'' * '' Arotrophora'' * '' Camadeniana'' * ''Deltisosciaria'' * '' Hydaranthes'' * '' Ioditis'' * '' Matronula'' * '' Paracomotis'' * '' Paraphyas'' * '' Parastranga'' * '' Peraglyphis'' * '' Syllomatia'' * '' Symphygas'' * '' Tanychaeta'' Former genera :'' Alytopistis'' (synonym of '' Ardiosteres'') Life cycle File:Acleris schalleriana caterpillar.jpg, Caterpillar of '' Acleris schalleriana'' inside rolled leaf of ''Viburnum dentatum ''Viburnum dentatum'', southern arrowwood or arrowwood viburnum or roughish arrowwood, is a small shrub, native to the eastern Unit ...

Tortricidae
The Tortricidae are a family of moths, commonly known as tortrix moths or leafroller moths, in the order Lepidoptera. This large family has over 11,000 species described, and is the sole member of the superfamily Tortricoidea, although the genus ''Heliocosma'' is sometimes placed within this superfamily. Many of these are economically important pests. Olethreutidae is a junior synonym. The typical resting posture is with the wings folded back, producing a rather rounded profile. Notable tortricids include the codling moth and the spruce budworm, which are among the most well-studied of all insects because of their economic impact. Description Tortricid moths are generally small, with a wingspan of 3 cm or less.Hanson, Paul E. (04-11-2018). Insects and Other Arthropods of Tropical America. Cornell University Press. Many species are drab and have mottled and marbled brown colors, but some diurnal species are brightly colored and mimic other moths of the families Geometrida ...

Lorita Baccharivora
''Lorita baccharivora'', the groundsel leafroller, is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae.

Cochylini
The Cochylini are a tribe of tortrix moths. It used to be classified as the subfamily Cochylinae. Diversity The tribe contains about 1,000 described species in about 80 genera. Distribution Members of the tribe are present worldwide, but the greatest number of species occurs in the Holarctic realm and Neotropical realm. Biology Larvae are mostly internal feeders in seeds, stalks and roots. Taxonomy Research by Regier et al. in 2012 provided fairly convincing evidence that Cochylini are a monophyletic lineage within a broader Euliini. If this is accepted, Cochylini should be treated as subtribe Cochylina of Euliini.
