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 ...

Pterophoridae
The Pterophoridae or plume moths are a family of Lepidoptera with unusually modified wings. Though they belong to the Apoditrysia like the larger moths and the butterflies, unlike these they are tiny and were formerly included among the assemblage called "microlepidoptera". Description and ecology The forewings of plume moths usually consist of two curved spars with more or less bedraggled bristles trailing behind. This resembles the closely related Alucitidae (many-plumed moths) at first glance, but the latter have a greater number of symmetrical plumes. The hindwings are similarly constructed, but have three spars. This unorthodox structure does not prevent flight. A few genera have normal lepidopteran wings. The usual resting posture is with the wings extended laterally and narrowly rolled up. Often they resemble a piece of dried grass, and may pass unnoticed by potential predators even when resting in exposed situations in daylight. Some species have larvae which are stem- ...

Singularia Alternaria
''Singularia alternaria'' is a moth of the family Pterophoridae. It is found in Argentina, Chile and Ecuador. The wingspan is 13–21 mm. The head is scaled in pale grey and brown-grey scales. The antennae are pale grey to pale brown-grey. The thorax is pale brown-grey and the abdomen pale brown-grey, with three longitudinal brown lines on the upperside. The forewings are pale grey with indistinct pale brown-grey scaling with increasing intensity toward the base of the cleft. There are several dark brown spots and some dark brown and white scales. The fringes along the costal margin of the first lobe are alternating dark brown and pale grey. The dorsal fringes of the first lobe are grey-brown and the costal fringes of the second lobe have two alternating dark brown and grey-white patches. There are dark and light fringes along the dorsal margin in a pattern reversed to that of the costal margin. The hindwings are brown-grey on basal half, gradually turning more brown toward ...
