Tinea (moth)
''Tinea'' is a genus of the fungus moth family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the subfamily Tineinae. As evident by its name, it is the type genus of its subfamily and family. Established as one of the first subgroups of ''" Phalaena"'', it used to contain many species of Tineidae that are nowadays placed in other genera, as well as a few moths nowadays placed elsewhere. Selected species Species of ''Tinea'' include: * '' Tinea antricola'' Meyrick, 1924 * '' Tinea apicimaculella'' Chambers, 1875 * '' Tinea atmogramma'' Meyrick, 1927 * '' Tinea basifasciella'' Ragonot, 1895 * '' Tinea behrensella'' Chambers, 1875 * '' Tinea bothniella'' Svensson, 1953 * '' Tinea carnariella'' Clemens, 1859 * '' Tinea chaotica'' Meyrick, 1893 * '' Tinea columbariella'' Wocke, 1877 * '' Tinea corynephora'' Turner, 1927 * '' Tinea croceoverticella'' Chambers, 1876 * '' Tinea drymonoma'' Turner, 1923 * '' Tinea dubiella'' Stainton, 1859 * '' Tinea flavescentella'' Haworth, 1828 * '' Tinea flavofi ...

Case-bearing Clothes Moth
''Tinea pellionella'', the case-bearing clothes moth, is a species of Tineoidea, tineoid moth in the family Tineidae, the fungus moths. This species has a cosmopolitan distribution, occurring nearly worldwide.Cheema, P. S. (1956).Studies on the bionomics of the case-bearing clothes moth, ''Tinea pellionella'' (L.)''Bulletin of Entomological Research'' 47(1), 167-82. Taxonomy Being a widespread species and often affiliated with humans, ''T. pellionella'' was among the first moths to be 10th edition of Systema Naturae, scientifically described in the modern sense. At that time most moths were included in a single genus ''"Phalaena"'', but ''Tinea'' was already recognized as a distinct subgenus. Some later researchers who studied this moth erroneously believed they had discovered populations formerly unknown to science and described them as new species, but today these are all included within ''T. pellionella''. Obsolete scientific names for this moth thus may be encountered in the l ...

Species
In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. A species is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA sequence, morphology, behaviour or ecological niche. In addition, paleontologists use the concept of the chronospecies since fossil reproduction cannot be examined. The most recent rigorous estimate for the total number of species of eukaryotes is between 8 and 8.7 million. However, only about 14% of these had been described by 2011. All species (except viruses) are given a two-part name, a "binomial". The first part of a binomial is the genus to which the species belongs. The second part is called the specific name or the specific epithet (in botanical nomenclature, also sometimes i ...

Tinea Dubiella
''Tinea dubiella'' is a species of moth belonging to the family Tineidae. It is native to Europe. This species has been recorded in New Zealand and is regarded as being established in that country. Description Head with rust red hair.Forewing dark grey-brown with weak black spots, usually at least two and a hyaline spot near the base.Hindwings light grey. Difficult to distinguish from '' Tinea columbariella'', ''Tinea pellionella'' and ''Tinea svenssoni'' but the genitalia are diagnostic.

Tinea Drymonoma
Dermatophytosis, also known as ringworm, is a fungal infection of the skin. Typically it results in a red, itchy, scaly, circular rash. Hair loss may occur in the area affected. Symptoms begin four to fourteen days after exposure. Multiple areas can be affected at a given time. About 40 types of fungus can cause ringworm. They are typically of the ''Trichophyton'', ''Microsporum'', or ''Epidermophyton'' type. Risk factors include using public showers, contact sports such as wrestling, excessive sweating, contact with animals, obesity, and poor immune function. Ringworm can spread from other animals or between people. Diagnosis is often based on the appearance and symptoms. It may be confirmed by either culturing or looking at a skin scraping under a microscope. Prevention is by keeping the skin dry, not walking barefoot in public, and not sharing personal items. Treatment is typically with antifungal creams such as clotrimazole or miconazole. If the scalp is involved, anti ...

Tinea Columbariella
''Tinea columbariella'' is a moth belonging to the family Tineidae. The species was first described by Wocke in 1877. It has a cosmopolitan distribution. Description Wingspan 9-15 mm.
