picture info	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.

	Scythrididae Scythrididae (flower moths) is a family of small moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. The family is sometimes included in the Xyloryctidae as a subfamily Scythridinae, but the Xyloryctidae themselves have sometimes been included in the Oecophoridae as subfamily. Scythrididae adults are smallish to mid-sized moths, which when at rest appear teardrop-shaped. Selected genera Genera of Scythrididae (with some notable species also listed) include: * ''Apostibes'' Walsingham, 1907 * ''Areniscythris'' Powell, 1976 * ''Asymmetrura'' Landry, 1991 * '' Bactrianoscythris'' Passerin d'Entrèves & Roggero, 2009 * ''Catascythris'' * ''Coleophorides'' Amsel, 1935 * ''Enolmis'' Duponchel, 1845 * ''Episcythris'' Amsel, 1939 * '' Eretmocera'' Zeller, 1852 * ''Erigethes'' Walsingham, 1907 * ''Falkovitshella'' Passerin d'Entrèves & Roggero, 2007 * ''Haploscythris'' Viette, 1956 * '' Mapsidius'' Walsingham, 1907 * '' Necrothalassia'' Amsel, 1935 * ''Neoscythris'' Landry, 1991 * '' Paralogistis'' ...

	Kazakhstan Kazakhstan, officially the Republic of Kazakhstan, is a transcontinental country located mainly in Central Asia and partly in Eastern Europe. It borders Russia to the north and west, China to the east, Kyrgyzstan to the southeast, Uzbekistan to the south, and Turkmenistan to the southwest, with a coastline along the Caspian Sea. Its capital is Astana, known as Nur-Sultan from 2019 to 2022. Almaty, Kazakhstan's largest city, was the country's capital until 1997. Kazakhstan is the world's largest landlocked country, the largest and northernmost Muslim-majority country by land area, and the ninth-largest country in the world. It has a population of 19 million people, and one of the lowest population densities in the world, at fewer than 6 people per square kilometre (15 people per square mile). The country dominates Central Asia economically and politically, generating 60 percent of the region's GDP, primarily through its oil and gas industry; it also has vast mineral ...

picture info	Type Locality (biology) In biology, a type is a particular specimen (or in some cases a group of specimens) of an organism to which the scientific name of that organism is formally attached. In other words, a type is an example that serves to anchor or centralizes the defining features of that particular taxon. In older usage (pre-1900 in botany), a type was a taxon rather than a specimen. A taxon is a scientifically named grouping of organisms with other like organisms, a set that includes some organisms and excludes others, based on a detailed published description (for example a species description) and on the provision of type material, which is usually available to scientists for examination in a major museum research collection, or similar institution. Type specimen According to a precise set of rules laid down in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) and the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN), the scientific name of every taxon is almost a ...

	Scythris ''Scythris'' is a genus of gelechioid moths. It is the type genus of the flower moth family, which is sometimes included as a subfamily in the ''Xyloryctidae'', or together with these merged into the Oecophoridae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1825. It is the largest genus of flower moths, and as such might not be fully monophyletic with regard to some very small or monotypic genera placed in the same family. In addition, new species of ''Scythris'' continue to be discovered and described.FE (2009), and see references in Savela (2008) Selected species Species groups The species of ''Scythris'' have been divided among several groups, which may or may not be monophyletic; those that are may – provided they are closely enough related to the type species '' S. limbella'' – be considered subgenera. There is a considerable number of species whose exact relationships are hitherto elusive. Some have been placed in a "Monospecific species group" of their o ...
