Spilosomina
The Spilosomina are a subtribe of tiger moths in the tribe Arctiini, which is part of the family Erebidae. Taxonomy The subtribe was previously classified as the tribe Spilosomini of the family Arctiidae. Genera The following genera are included in the subtribe. Numerous arctiine genera have not yet been assigned to a tribe, so this genus list may be incomplete. *'' Aethalida'' *'' Acantharctia'' *'' Afraloa'' *'' Afroarctia'' *'' Afrojavanica'' *'' Afromurzinia'' *'' Afrospilarctia'' *'' Afrowatsonius'' *'' Alexicles'' *''Allanwatsonia'' *'' Alpenus'' *''Aloa'' *'' Alphaea'' with two subgenera: '' Flavalphaea'' and '' Nayaca'' *''Amsacta'' *''Amsactarctia'' *''Amsactoides'' *''Andala'' *'' Arachnis'' *''Ardices'' with a subgenus '' Australemyra'' *''Areas'' with a subgenus '' Melanareas'' *'' Argyarctia'' with a subgenus '' Fangalphaea'' *'' Binna'' *''Bucaea'' *''Canararctia'' *'' Carcinarctia'' *'' Cheliosea'' *'' Chionarctia'' *'' Cladarctia'' *''Creataloum'' *'' Creatonot ...

Max Gaede
Max Gaede (29 November 1871 – 27 October 1946) was a German engineer and entomologist of international fame who described several hundred of new species of Lepidoptera, mainly African Noctuidae. He became a member of the Internationaler Entomologischer Verein in 1899. Many Lepidoptera species have been named after Max Gaede. Some of them are: * '' Zekelita gaedei'' Lödl, 1999 * '' Decachorda gaedei'' Dufrane 1953 * '' Astyloneura gaedei'' Alberti, 1957 * '' Eutelia gaedei'' Hacker & Fibiger, 2006 * '' Zamarada gaedei'' D. S.

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.

Erebidae
The Erebidae are a family of moths in the superfamily Noctuoidea. The family is among the largest families of moths by species count and contains a wide variety of well-known macromoth groups. The family includes the underwings ('' Catocala''); litter moths (Herminiinae); tiger, lichen, and wasp moths (Arctiinae); tussock moths (Lymantriinae), including the arctic woolly bear moth (''Gynaephora groenlandica''); piercing moths ( Calpinae and others); micronoctuoid moths (Micronoctuini); snout moths (Hypeninae); and zales, though many of these common names can also refer to moths outside the Erebidae (for example, crambid snout moths). Some of the erebid moths are called owlets. The sizes of the adults range from among the largest of all moths (> wingspan in the black witch) to the smallest of the macromoths ( wingspan in some of the Micronoctuini). The coloration of the adults spans the full range of dull, drab, and camouflaged (e.g., ''Zale lunifera'' and litter moths) to vi ...
