Protobathra Erista
''Protobathra erista'' is a moth in the family Autostichidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1916. It is found in southern India. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is about 20 mm. The forewings are fuscous, more or less irrorated (sprinkled) suffusedly with dark fuscous and with cloudy dark fuscous 8-shaped spots in the disk before and beyond the middle representing the stigmata. In one specimen, the discal area all round these is wholly suffused with white, extending broadly to the costa and the dorsum beyond the middle, and there is a patch of white suffusion towards the basal portion of the dorsum, and an irregular suffused white subterminal fascia, in the other specimen these white areas are only indicated by some irregular white irrorat ...

Protobathra Coenotypa
''Protobathra coenotypa'' is a moth in the family Autostichidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1918. It is found in Sri Lanka. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is 14–17 mm. The forewings are greyish ochreous more or less irrorated (sprinkled) with grey, the costal edge whitish ochreous. There is a dark fuscous dot on the base of the costa and the stigmata are dark fuscous, the plical beneath the first discal. There is a marginal series of cloudy dark fuscous dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen to before the tornus. The hindwings are light grey.Meyrick, Edward (1916–1923)''Exotic Microlepidoptera''. 2 (5): 155. References Moths described in 1918 Autostichinae {{Autostichinae-stub ...

Protobathra Leucostola
''Scythropiodes leucostola'' is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1921. It is found in Japan and Korea. The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are white with scattered grey and blackish spots and a blackish linear dot towards the costa near the base. The stigmata are rather large, blackish, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal. There is a blackish dot beneath the costa before the middle and a strongly curved series of rather large dark grey dots from beneath the costa at two-thirds to the dorsum before the tornus, interrupted below the middle. There is also a marginal series of small blackish-grey dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are whitish grey.Meyrick, Edward (1916–1923)''Exotic Microlepidoptera''. 2 (14): 436.

Autostichinae
__NOTOC__ The Autostichinae are a subfamily of moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. Like their relatives therein, their exact relationships are not yet very well resolved. The present lineage was often included in the concealer moth family (Oecophoridae), but alternatively it is united with the Symmocidae '' sensu stricto'' (and often also the Holcopogonidae and/or certain genera otherwise considered twirler moths, e.g. '' Deoclona'' and '' Syringopais'') to form an expanded family Autostichidae (in the past also referred to as family Symmocidae). Selected genera Genera in this subfamily are:ABRS (2008), Wikispecies (2011-OCT-17) * '' Anaptilora'' Meyrick, 1904 * '' Autosticha'' Meyrick, 1886 (including ''Epicoenia, Semnolocha'') * '' Demiophila'' Meyrick, 1906 * '' Deroxena'' Meyrick, 1913 * '' Diophila'' Meyrick, 1937 * '' Encrasima'' Meyrick, 1916 * '' Galagete'' B.Landry, 2002 * '' Heliangara'' Meyrick, 1906 * '' Ischnodoris'' Meyrick, 1911 * '' Lasiodictis'' Meyrick, ...

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 ...

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...
