''Azygophleps'' is a genus of
moths belonging to the family
Cossidae.
Description
''Azygophleps'' are a genus of medium-sized moths, with long forewings, light-colored hindwings, and a spotted pattern. While similar to other
Cossidae genera such as ''
Sansara'', ''
Strigocossus'', and ''
Aethalopteryx'', ''Azygophleps'' can be distinguished from these genera through the females' toothed antennae, long forewings that are rounded at the apex, unique
genitalia in both sexes, including the absence of arms on the gnathos of the male of the species. Females, additionally, have a star-like symbol on their genitalia.
Distribution
The 28 species of ''Azygophleps'' primarily reside throughout Africa, although a few species have been found in Asia and in the Arabian peninsula.
