Gelechiinae
Gelechiinae is a subfamily of moths in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Henry Tibbats Stainton in 1854. Taxonomy The subfamily includes the following tribes and genera: *Litini Bruand, 1859 **'' Agnippe'' Chambers, 1872 **'' Altenia'' Sattler, 1960 **''Angustialata'' Omelko, 1988 **'' Arcutelphusa'' Lee & Brown, 2008 **'' Argyrolacia'' Keifer, 1936 **'' Arogalea'' Walsingham, 1910 **'' Carpatolechia'' Capuse, 1964 **'' Chorivalva'' Omelko, 1988 **'' Coleotechnites'' Chambers, 1880 **'' Concubina'' Omelko & Omelko, 2004 **'' Exoteleia'' Wallengren, 1881 ** ''Glauce'' Chambers, 1875 **'' Istrianis'' Meyrick, 1918 **'' Neotelphusa'' Janse, 1958 **''Parachronistis'' Meyrick, 1925 **'' Parastenolechia'' Kanazawa, 1985 **''Piskunovia'' Omelko, 1988 **'' Pragmatodes'' Walsingham, 908/small> **''Protoparachronistis'' Omelko, 1986 **'' Pseudotelphusa'' Janse, 1958 **'' Pubitelphusa'' Lee & Brown, 2013 **''Recurvaria'' Haworth, 1828 **'' Schistophila'' Chrétien, 1899 **''Sch ...

Gelechiidae
The Gelechiidae are a family of moths commonly referred to as twirler moths or gelechiid moths. They are the namesake family of the huge and little-studied superfamily Gelechioidea, and the family's taxonomy has been subject to considerable dispute. These are generally very small moths with narrow, fringed wings. The larvae of most species feed internally on various parts of their host plants, sometimes causing galls. Douglas-fir (''Pseudotsuga'') is a host plant common to many species of the family, particularly of the genus ''Chionodes'', which as a result is more diverse in North America than usual for Gelechioidea. By the late 20th century, over 900 genera with altogether more than 4,500 species were placed here, with about 650 genera known from North America alone. While these figures are certainly outdated, due to the many revisions to superfamily Gelechioidea and new descriptions of twirler moths, they still serve to show the enormous biodiversity contained in this import ...

Taiwan
Taiwan, officially the Republic of China (ROC), is a country in East Asia, at the junction of the East and South China Seas in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, with the People's Republic of China (PRC) to the northwest, Japan to the northeast, and the Philippines to the south. The territories controlled by the ROC consist of 168 islands, with a combined area of . The main island of Taiwan, also known as ''Formosa'', has an area of , with mountain ranges dominating the eastern two-thirds and plains in the western third, where its highly urbanised population is concentrated. The capital, Taipei, forms along with New Taipei City and Keelung the largest metropolitan area of Taiwan. Other major cities include Taoyuan, Taichung, Tainan, and Kaohsiung. With around 23.9 million inhabitants, Taiwan is among the most densely populated countries in the world. Taiwan has been settled for at least 25,000 years. Ancestors of Taiwanese indigenous peoples settled the isla ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
