. Many species are referred to as mochas in reference to their colouration, primarily in Europe.

Taxonomy

Traditionally, species included in this genus were either placed in ''Cyclophora'' (mostly Holarctic species) and ''Anisodes'' (mostly tropical species). Research concluded that these species belong in the same genus. The type species of ''Anisodes'' was even found to have features that are used to define ''Cyclophora''.

Description

Palpi hardly reaching beyond the frons. Antennae of male bipectinate (comb like on both sides) to two-thirds length. Forewings with vein 3 from before angle of cell and veins 7, 8 and 9 stalked from before upper angle. Vein 10 and 11 anastomosing (fusing) strongly with them to form the small areole. Hindwings with veins 3, 4 and 6, 7 from angles of cell. The typical section has the medial spur pair of hind tibia absent in male.
